In a previous post i have stated i have a problem with my vinyl cutter. I have a Secabo vinyl cutting machine & was supplied with a number of different knives when purchased. These were for various fonts...some knives are stated for small fonts & some just for fonts....there are also what they call standard knives.
I'm having issues with cutting certain designs where lines are not perfectly meeting...This only happens in minimal parts of a slightly complex design or on fonts. My font's don't always come out that great. Some letters are perfect while one 1 or 2 letters give me a problem where they might be slightly off cut & a line hasn't joined or the letters have slightly curved corners instead of perfectly straight edges!.
Do people bother with changing knives for fonts? Most of my fonts aren't that small but i seem to be getting problems when i cut font's of any size, not just small, so not sure if it really could be the knives i'm using? Do people change knives when they cut different sized font's. I just want to cut my jobs as quickly as possible but i'm finding if i switched knives to cut seperate fonts this would take jobs so much longer...whats people ideas on this?
