I just got my new vinyl cutter today! thing is freaking sweet. I'de post a picture, but uh........WTF HAPPENED TO THE FORUM!!!! anyways, I'm goign to do some testing of the thing tonight, then mabey start cutting cheeap vinyl for people. any interests? oh wait that sounds like a shameless "put my name out there" sorry. lol

 

[gaboonviper85]

I'd be interested.....you have aim?

 

[empera]

yes i need a new supplier...wat format do u take?

 

[veedubin]

No go on the aim. My programs will accept most any vector file. The only one I found it won't touch is .ai from adobe CS4 if you save it as EPS it'll work though. email is dcoffman@ptd.net and we can talk

A vinyl sheet with the TRD Motorsports Racing Division logo as long and wide as the roll-up cargo cover in the back.

:evil3:

Nice, i will hit you up 4 shizzle.

I'm not sure how vinyl would stick to that. I think it could be done, but you'de almost have to get a banner type thing made and use that to replace the factory material by tearing it apart and rewinding it with the banner. That would be freaking neat though.

Also, if you have anything you want done just send me the file to dcoffman@ptd.net be sure to include sizes and quantities. I'll email you back a quote.

DING! That's EXACTLY what I want to do. Not a sticker, but a banner that rolls up properly. How much would something like that cost?

NOTE: Want the TRD Motorsports to read properly while looking at it from the back (logo running left-to-right, NOT longways).

Not sure on cost. I'm unable to do banners at the moment, but I have some connections for them. Other thing I'de have to look at is the ability to unwind and rewind the cargo cover. I'll look into that later this week. I have a spare laying around that I can take apart.

Is it just a cutter, or can you print on it as well? I've been considering picking up one of these myself for quite a while, but I've never actually pulled the trigger.

You should still be able to point to attachments on photobucket and the like - and I'm pretty sure the file attachments locally are still working, too.

What I have now is just a cutter/plotter. If things work out with this, then I will be looking into a printer. But that could be awhile yet. Time will tell.
Also, if you want it and think you can at least get your money out of it, just do it. I had the same issue. Finally I bought it, and no regrets. My wife has had me making vinyl stuff for everything in the house. LOL

Maximum size is 30"x 20ft ( 30" wide vinyl is not cheap) Right now I'm stocked with 15" wide stuff. I've been doing smaller projects here and there and have not see a need for 30 wide as of yet. The vinyl I currently have is something like 6mil thick.About 3-6yr outdoor life. I can get some really thick stuff, but it too is very expensive. They are saying that stuff can lat over 15 outdoors.
As for ideas.... I knnow what you mean. Too many, and not enough time. If you have something you want done or a price on, send me the picture and I'll see what I can do.
