Purchased a Graphtec CE5000-60 (24 inch. wide) Vinyl Cutter. Finally got my cutter mid January but I was working on a database project at that time so it had to sit. Got it unpacked at the end of January but had a few issues with the software plugin for Corel Draw. Emailed tech support for two different issues and got responses on both in less than a day. The plugin and cutter are working great. I decided to dive right it for my first project to see how intricate it could cut.
My First Vinyl Cutter Project
I chose the most intricate design I had in my clipart collection (I’m not that good of an artist) and away it went. It is a little bit smaller than letter size and it took me forever to weed it out. It is white vinyl with a blue liner with the application tape layed over the design (the yellowish texture). I have yet to decide where to apply it however. I tried cutting this design again and weeding a reverse copy but I am having a really tough time weeding that one out.
But it looks cool.
