Who offers the best start up kits for the money. I will need the cutter/plotter and supplies needed to get started. I want to do both transfer vinyl and decal/sticker vinyl. I have been searching for details on this and I hope some of you already know the best bargain.

I thought the copam had the digital eye meant for cutting transfers? Am I worng or do you have an older version of the machine?

As far as I know it only has a optical for measuring material

sup cutty, yeah man i bought a lynx 24 inch from signwarehouse.com and it was easy to set-up and use and they have great tech support , it came with vinyl , a roll of banner material , tutorial videos , some real nice clipart disc's man u get all kind's of stuff. i paid like $1.600.00 for mine and well worth it

I think SOBER's right! That's where I got my stuff about 6 years ago and I am just now replacng the blade. Mine is also a Lynx 24 and I have no problems with it and you can get cutters/plotters pretty darn cheap nw. So give them a try and see what you come up with.

If you wanted to beat it, could you?

Thrillustrations · October 23rd, 2007

I would have to say a resounding NO! to that

plan b · October 23rd, 2007

the machine is built like a tank, and for that price point and more than twice that price no you can't beat it.
