Default Frequently Asked Questions in the Vinyl Cutters (Plotters) Forum: New here? Read Me

Q: So what is vinyl? Can I get some kind of introduction?
Heat Transfer Vinyl Video

Q: What kind of vinyl should I use?

Q: Can I get some information on using a plotter to cut inkjet transfers?

Q: I've heard about a print and cut system like the Versacamm - any information on that?

Note: This list is incomplete, you can help the forums by contributing to it! Have a favourite thread from the vinyl forum? Post it up!

The above threads are not necessarily definitive - the current "which cutter" thread is more of a placeholder for example, I'm sure there are other great threads on the topic. So if you have better threads that answer the above questions, feel free to post those too.

We want a few of the best threads on each topic, so when better examples are found we can replace the weaker ones with those.
