In the meantime, you should be able to follow the written tutorial I show.
Re: Rhinestone Software ACS and This is What It can Do!
Hi i am using the setting sandy gave me. I do not have it all on right now to see what they are.
yes 2 pass and i think over cut is 50..
Not using the o rings yet i placed the blade in and that has been working good so i have not changed anything.
The Plastic stuff is just flexible cutting boards i picked up at TJMAX on discount i got them for sets of 3 for $2.99 they normley sell for $9.99.
We just picked some up at walmart today that are all white they are not as thick but work to and cost less $3.97 for 3 that are larger 12x15s they are mainstay brand.
They do flex more then the others so i hope that is not going to be a problem.
I ended up cutting 25 designs out last night.
I have around 10 more to go for everything i have designed.
Then i will have around 50 i have done.

May I ask what your setting are on your maxx?
speed? downforce? Do you do a 2-pass cut? ...and an overcut? Do you use the "O-rings" - that SandyM suggests - to set the depth of your blade holder?
If you have already mentioned the above answers somewhere in this thread please forgive me for asking again.......I will go back to the beginning to look for them just in case.

ED,
Yes, I use the software settings that she gave me as well...for my Groove-E rhinestone cutter.
(similar to the Falcon...only A LOT cheaper!!!)
When you have the time and are around your machine, please let me know your speed & downforce if you don't mind. (V & F... I think?)
I know that you do a lot of FONTS....do you also design many "images"? and do you do a lot of "fills"?
Thanks for the tip on the "flexible cutting boards".
(right now I use extra thick chip board .09)

Re: Rhinestone Software ACS and This is What It can Do!
The settings are
V-250
F-90
I have done some images but not many and have not done fills yet. I want to keep the RS count down.
I will get into a lot more harder designs down the road but right now i have a ton of websites waiting for product photos of things i am working on now. I have 29 designs done and cut and working on a few more now.
I am also learning CorelDraw and designing full color designs for a DyeSub system i have and making one and two color designs for Vinyl cutting shirts on the Maxx and ACS.
Trying to get close to 100 products done and on my websites by March 1st.
Then i will get into harder designs with more RS.
Will have to see how more i need to charge for them.

Hi Eddie sounds like you are doing awesome with your new toy hehe.
Hey I speaking of websites did you know you can put yours in your signature. All you do is go into your control panel and go to edit profile signature and input it there you can put up to 2 links Hope this helps.

Actually, I just reread this and realized that no... this wasn't the actual video that I was referring to. Well, the process is the same, but I intend to make a version to show specifically it would work if using rhinestones.
