DSF

you have 3 dif blade holders for dif depth of cuts
and you can also adjust it via the software
and there is a test cut feature on it which cuts a funny shape in the corner which you can then weed to see if it works ok

on clothing vinyl (sorry martin) there's a clear backing which once pressed is either hold or cold peeled
you don't cut thru this obviously and it's that that acts a backing for it

you usually use the carrier sheet for cutting paper or card for other projects like making boxes etc
amazing what u can do with it once you figure out how (i really shut learn how to use mine properly lol )

thanks,off to do some crop tops now

rofl good one watch out for your phone Paul

just ordered one of these Pack B
think i made it in time for tommorows delivery so heres hoping

Im also hoping it does the full 12 inch edge to edge and software works on win7 64 bit

problems problems problems

Software works fine on Windows 7 64 bit as I use on my laptop with no problems at all.

I use the carrier sheet a lot, if i have any small bits of vinyl I want to use up, I hardly have any waste. I also use it with paper and the pen in the blade holder if i want to draw any designs prior to cutting or if I need to show my customer first. My very first Robo is still going strong after producing thousands of t shirts, I can honestly say it is the least problematic machine i have ever owned.

Last year I thought ..this little beauty's not going to go on much longer so I bought a new one and it's never been out of the box and a couple of months ago I was given a very little used one and it's still sat in the box as the old one is just plodding along. A great investment for me that was.

cheers just waiting for knock on door from delivery guy
will let u know how easy it is to do when i messed with it

I remember the first thing I ever cut was my name in vinyl. I had bought the craft robbo with quite a bit of other stuff and also had a few samples of vinyl included so I could mess around.

Anyway, being one that never reads instructions (come on, there's not a lot that do) I jumped on and within 2 minutes I was cutting my name. I was chuffed to bits when it came out not having a clue what to expect - then I weeded it, ohhhhhhhhhhh I thought, this is fun - I could do this all day!

Then I spent the next hour trying to figure out why it was reversed! (i.e I never mirror imaged it before the cut).

I smile now now thinking about it - and I still enjoy weeding, well I do up until about 11am then I'm pig sick of it! (lol)
