HELP! I need HELP getting started...

[Techman]

i got a good deal on a CX-300 ROLAND.....i am spolied now!!!

OP never believed how nice it was to run a really good cutter.. That is not until he got this one..

Servo motors are whisper quiet, accurate and fast. Steppers are noisy. Some are so noisy you cannot use a phone in the same room. On a cutter this noise deal is a big factor. On a router it makes no difference. I run my cutter right next to my work desk and answer the phone without a bother.

Been in the sign business since 1980, tried to start my own several times. Long story.
Tired of working for someone else, here I go again!

just out of curiousity... what have you done differently THIS time?

Have never met OP to shake his hand, but he does speak good sense.

Right now you're spending more time fixing your gear to get it to work,
rather than putting the same time into building your new venture.
