Ok I want to play with that stuff It looks so cool, there would be an endless amount of things you could put that on. Thanks for the link, I am going to have to check that out.
Well, I've acquired a pack of the silver laser vinyl and it prints, cuts, weeds and sticks better than I anticipated so all I need now is a starter doming kit and away I go.
Here's another site with a video demo using an inkjet printer and a Craft Robo cutter.
How do you putmarks arround transfer to cut it out with vinyl cutter and how do you set it up on the vinyl cutter to cut? Have coreldrawx3
Thanks
I have not tried this yet. But I do know you have to make sure your cutter supports this with an optical eye or ARM system. When you are searching for more information, you are looking for registration marks and contour cutting.
This is something I've heard other forum members thank their cutter suppliers for walking them through, so you might want to see if that support is available to you.
I know that at least for a while Sign-Mart had them not sure if they still do.. But they were a couple grand.. There are cheaper ones out there but ive been told you get what you pay for. I know we have a friend that has one.. and because of the cost involved the stickers are a bit expensive.
donno.. the one I was speaking of you put the dome thing on by hand.... I think the etter ones come with some sort of curing unit.. .. Ill have to see if sign mart still has them and how much the dang things are..
.. oYOu have to really becareful too when applying the dome stuff that it gets no bubble etc in it as that ruins the look of the whole thing.... Ill try to find out a bit more for you..
The hand doming kits usually come with a small flame gun for eliminating bubbles.
The UK price of the starting kit is £95 which is about $180 it consists of application gun. flame gun, resin 2 part carts. mixer nozzles etc. You then only need to buy the carts and mixing nozzles.
Don't know of US suppliers but a Google search for resin doming should bring them up.
