Thanks.
I have since purchased the Rapscallion True Type Font, for better effects on 'Pirate' wear:
No, you are not missing anything. But, remember to clean the application area thoroughly.
If it's for outdoor use, use a rated vinyl (Oracle 651 is calendared - Rated for short life in UV and good life indoors, while Oracle 851 - is rated for 5-7 years in outdoor conditions --- Don't quote me on the numbers, or the actual models of the viny... you will see when ordering, the life expectency of the vinyl you are ordering)

Where did you get the "SignGo professional sign making software (w/dongle), not just a "starter" or partial version. It also came with 4,500 vector clipart images on 2-CDs, 1-CD with 8,000 royalty free images and Inkscape vectorization program, 2-dvd set sign making tutorial and 8 rolls of sign vinyl, 2 squeegees, etc". How much did it cost??
Oh, what kind of vinyls do I use for decals? Where can I buy them?
Thanks! | | | | | | |
The cutter was (32" cutting, 36" vinyl w/SignGo) and the rest were a package deal from the classified ads on this site. Not all the vinyl was damp, or old, just a couple of sets... I even have some turned engine and diamond cut to play with.
look at the above answer for vinyls, and a link search has been posted
