Cheap Vinyl Cutter
Hi All
I'm thinking of buying a budget vinyl cutter / plotter to do some pretty simple logos for the race car(s) and some race number sets. There are
loads on eBay but I'm not sure what to look for. I'd need bundled software too as I don't have anything like Coreldraw etc.
Any thoughts?

Wyn

mainly that I should ask people who know more about it......
Generally though the cheapy ebay ones do seem to pretty good value for money. Only found a few reports of total dismay.

cheap for a reason, some people are lucky or skillful to get them working well, i think a lot of them end up as door stops.

I used to drive a vinyl cutter at work, which used to cut rolls of vinyl about 300mm wide. It cost us £1000 and was very good, from Lighthouse. Ive
often looked at the cheap ones on fleabay, but never really wanted to risk £300.
Kindest Regards,
