  3. SSK DesignTech 60

    I have one that I got from SSK when I first got started and it has been a good cutter. Still gets used all the time. It was made by Graphtec. If you can get the DT60 for a good price its not a bad entry level cutter. As for the Vista problem posted, your stuck, XP is the only way to get going...

  5. Edit bitmap opens piant

    Well after trying everything I could think of I give up. I needed to go in and add some details to a skull for a project. Imported the vector image, set the fill to 20% black, and converted it to a bitmap, 200dpi and grayscale. Hit the edit bitmap button and instead of photo-paint, paint opens...
  6. Any Huge difference on these 2 cutters(worth it?)

    I like my Graphtec, been a great cutter. If that used one is in good shape and cuts well, then $550 is a fair price. Jimmy

  12. DC4 - or... thermal vs inks

    I have the DC4SX and for my limited space and the type of work I do it does very well. I do a lot of decals for manufactures and a lot on clear. Being able to print white has been a big seller. I lettered a truck yesterday that the logo was printed. Measured the truck when it got here, adjusted...
  13. Getting Ready to Step Up a Little

    Kind of depends on your market. I do a lot of decals for smaller manufactures that don't need but 250 or so at a time and for this market print and cut is good and thermal is better so I got a Summa DC4SX 30" and it does very well for what I do, If I did a lot of banners or wraps it would not be...
  14. objects disapear while zooming but dont come back?

Sometimes when I select part or all of the drawing it becomes a white box and I have to zoom in and out to get the object back. Seems to happen more with the laptop with the latest updates than the desktop that...

    I have had my DC4SX for 4 months now and it has done good so far. The thing is built like a tank. Contour cut over long runs does real good.

  18. Combing Color Layer Elements - X3

    If you take two circles one inside the other you can not weld them together. When yo weld you need overlaping objects. In this case you would combine them to make an object. If you draw two circles one inside the other then draw a box accross them and select all of them then you can use the weld...
  19. Combing Color Layer Elements - X3

    One thing I noticed from your post is that you said "retraced". That means some of what you are using is bitmap. Before you weld or combine you need to make sure everything you have is a vector object. This may be one of the problems you are having. When you are drawing you are not converting...
