Hey guys,
I am thinking about getting into doing vinyl work and maybe some decorative film, so I need to purchase a plotter. I don't want to spend to much to get started, I just want to see if I like doing it. I have read some of the posting and a lot of people are saying UsCutters are pretty good. I have found two cutters that I am interested in. Could someone give me some advice on which one I should get?
USCutter MH-1351 53"
ProCut CR1200 Signature Series

Had a USCutter for 6 days and it never worked. Went and bought a Graphtec and had it working in less than 30 minutes. I didn't like the software either. Just my

I never cut back windows with a plotter so my 24" ones does fine for automotive use, I hand cut all of my flat glass unless it is french panes or small craftsman style windows. The software will cost you more than the cutter.

What programs are out there for the Auto Film? I do realize I need to spend good money on the software. Thanks

That in itself should tell you if you should buy one or not..........
For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
