Hi all,

I have the craft robo CC330 and it is fab and great little cutter. I am now looking for something a little bigger to do bigger transfer for clubs and dance groups to go on clothing. I really dont want to have to pay loads as do this more as a hobbie for people. Is there anyone out there getting rid of a craft robo pro or something similar. I love the the programme that the craft robo comes with as it is simple to use and everything comes out great. Most places sell them as packages or charge the earth. Is there anyone who may be able to help or point me in the right direction on what to do. Keep looking on e.bay etc there is a bloke who is only hour away from me selling cutters and he has a workshop to display them and show you how they work and programmes which may be my way forward but not sure.

Love to hear from you.

Just bear in mind that the craft robo files will only open in the ROBO master software so if you go for a different cutter you'll have to recreate your saved files.

Thankyou for that. But if i go for a craft robo pro would that be ok. Or is there something you could suggest for me. Most of the files i get sent are in JPEG.
many thanks kx

The Pro version of the Craft Robo will take the same GSD format files. If you get jpg's mostly then you can use any cutter so long as you have some software for vectorising the jpg (creating the cut lines). The craft robo's have the useful tool built in, but other cheaper cutters might not come with the vectorising software.

Thankyou for that. Just need to find a craft robo pro at a very good price new or a good second hand one. Do you know of anywhere for that. :)
