My NEW Toy! ROLAND GX-24 Vinyl Cutter for stencils!
« on: August 13, 2014, 06:47:56 PM »
Damn... it's about time I broke down and bought me one of these fuckers! Now I can cut all my own stencils anytime I want without having to outsource. Test cut was super fast and smooooooth curves!
I have 100 yds. of Oramask 811 + transfer tape. Ready, Set, Cut!

Those Rolland's are pretty nice! I bought my laser point II about a year ago and had a couple problems with it but have it running like a top now. Takes a little time getting the tool and presure set jut right.  Enjoy it! You can do so much with them.

Yeah... I still have my old Roland D-50 synthesizer from back in the late 80's. I use to midi sequence all kinds of music back in the day.
