Had some time while my cookies where warming up, So I made a quick walk-through of my shop. Sorry about my potty mouth. I hate my voice. I just got over a cold so I have the sniffles. :)
#S10TOMMY made a cameo and chilled at the shop for a few hours. I got him out of that s-10 for a bit at least. The other lazy (:P) workers arn't there so I thought it was a good time to make a video. Feel free to add any suggestions, and stop by if you are ever in michigan. We are right by the airport and we let people sleep on the couch as long as you're not a douche or druggy.
Enjoy my quick, slightly nauseating video
peace

You got half a dozen empty spots and this poor guy still on his hothead #freetommy

That's a nice vinyl cutter, what is it?

Can I come stay on the couch? 82401 but seriously I'd like to stop up there one day when I'm over this DUI for smoking.

I don't offer other peoples torches to randoms, but he loved rocking the hot head. He left it behind when he left so he had an excuse for tomorrow I think...
There is usually alot more going on, that's why I decided to video it. Half the people were absent at the time. Some work late hours, some work early.

It's a "US CUTTER: TC PLOTTER" it cuts up to 24" and is an awesome tool to have. I run it with "sure cuts a lot pro 3" and it's super easy to use.

Cool vid. I love seeing full studios.

That other video (S10) you posted was madness. Think it broke my brain.

The blaster is from harbor freight and was only 150. It's a great working blaster for my needs.

I was looking at the same one, waiting for a good 20% off coupon to come my way.

Might go a little cheaper on the vinyl cutter though. Do you use special vinyl for sandblasting or just the standard stuff?

Here ya go... use coupon code "79109783" upon online checkout at Harbor Freight for 20% off any one item.

Or you can print the 20% off coupon from their website for a in store purchase to avoid shipping fees.

Thanks Twist, gonna head in there sometime this week hopefully.

Bulletproof, I think i'm gonna get the smaller uscutter, maybe the 14" ?

I usually don't use the whole 24". My vinyl is only 18" or something. 14" should be fine as long as the vinyl is available. I haven't looked. I just got a bunch of black and white 18" when I got the plotter. I really like the uscutter and sure cuts a lot 3 is on sale for 50$ right now. US CUTTER makes the program also so it obviously works well with it.

Most places will cut the vinyl roll down for you. Some places will give you one cut free, others will charge for every cut. I've got a little stika s8, so that single cut is a necessity ;)

If anyone needs viny stickers cut I can do black or white. Up to 18" wide and as long as the roll is. If you want to peel it yourself I'll do it cheaper but I can do them weeded and transfer tape on them like a pro. If you want little logos I would suggest unpeeled because you get the positive and the negative to use.

Here's a sample of some I've cut

Fifdeez, he was talking about the computer program that goes with automatic vinyl cutters I've been asking him about

The cutters I'm seeing 200-500 for a hobby one we would use
