You mentioned having started with the PC60...I started with the PC50 lol. Over $8000 (CAD) back in '97. I've been in the sign business for 25 years myself with similar equipment. Just me and the wife. We can really relate to all your videos! We look forward to your videos!
Thank you! I started cutting with a 12" Roland Stika then went to a GRC 61 Vinyl Express 24" cutter with LXI software. That old PC60 was awesome for small stickers, but slower then dirt compared to today's standards! I ran it through COREL Draw 4 I. My dad had Corel and let me load it so I could run the PC-60, I did show my age when I mentioned that LOL!!
Really cool idea, was just asked to do a gradient And couldn't do it that way. Now I can! Ended up making it a 3 layer instead of 2. Question though. Will the vinyl stick to the paint to make it a lot less cutting?
I suppose you could but I would worry about the bond of the paint to the vinyl with the permanent vinyl adhesive. I've always used the paint as the top surface.
