I totally agree!!! I have tried a couple of times scanning and going straight from that, but it is a pain! Check the Yahoo! Groups site for a lot of good graphics. Another site to check out is: http://www.webchantier.com/_index_en.html
I actually picked up a Vinyl Express Lynx 24" cutter off of eBay for cheap. I use Adobe Illustrator CS for all of the graphic stuff and VE's own software for cutting. I just do it on the side, not out to make a living on it.

www.jsisign.com

I have been using one of their JSI 24" plotters for years with no problems at all.
For right around 1k, it comes with some basic software and also some rolls of vinyl.
Their customer service has always been very good too.

I use that plotter with flexi sign 7.02 software.

The plotter works and tracks just as well as any of the higher priced ones that I have had experience with.

Default Re: Vinyl Cutter?

can any of you suggest one on FeeBay fro about $500 that will work well? As a novice id like a complete setup and one that has an easy learning curve if it as possible.
