is there anyone using Graphtec Craft ROBO 8.5? how is it for a new comer? i need a cutter/plotter to trim out some-what complex images from opaque transfer paper. I have seen GX24, which looks sweet but out of my budget...
i am not gona be cutting vinyl sheets anyway... jus need a simple cutter for trimming out an image.
is there any other preferable cutter within $500 range which is user friendly?

yes, there's an affordable cutter from uscutter called a laserpoint 24 it has had good reveiws. Welcome to SellTopia, LLC -
Hi Uzii I have the laserpoint 24 and I do like it it dois take some time to get it going but I am having fun learning it I will be doing my first transfer this week just been sick and now I am doing better so I can spend more time with it
Have you had time to use the laser cutter to cut transfer paper yet? I'm interested in purchasing one but I only if it can cut around printed designs on JPSS and IronALL Dark.

i also need it for the same purpose... for contour cutting around the opaque and light transfers but after alot of re-search, i have decided to wait on the plotter n buy a proper gx24 or graphtec craft robo PRO! coz they have the optic eye option n the contour cutting is very precise on them.
i went ASC yesturday n he was selling a cutter/plotter for 450 bucks... i asked him to perform contour cutting on a light transfer paper... i didnt like the results.
but i want to ask david... does ur plotter have some kind of optic eye option?
Have not got that far yet but in the next day or two. please note that I have not seen any one contour cut IronALL Dark, but have seen the JPSS and that is with Graphtec so now is just learning how to do this with laserpoint 24

I actually own and use the Graphtec Craft ROBO 8.5. It is a decent machine but doesn't always cut precise. My suggestion would be to get a complex design and try the different cutting modes and see if any will cut more precise. I have been using the "Thick Paper" option hoping it would cut deeper so I can just peel and use. The problem with doing that is cut ok, but not the best.
With everything you get it is a matter of mastering it and finding solutions that will get the job done.
