[Guest Reif40]

I am just wondering if anyone out there could just give me some info on these computer cutting machines? Thanx

Yea don't waste your money

technology sucks.

we should all be driving model T cars

if you have the money to invest they are nice to have. but you should never rely on it to do all the work. make sure you learn your skills first.

Email me at tintrdav@netscape.net, put 'tint' in the subject line and I'll get you some shop numbers who have given permission to hand their numbers out as references to anyone looking into the systems. Not that you couldn't get feedback from the fellow tinters here.

You can call them and get it straight from a tinter's mouth, pro and con, but it really boils down to is what's summed up in the quote box below.

I think they are great ! we have 1 in our shop and it makes life so much easier . and nevr have to worry about the new guys cutting glass on a 50k$ car . I was 100% against them when we got it but have since realized how much easier it makes it

I know it all depends on volume, but like stated earlier, you better know how to cut well manually. There will always be that car or condition that will require cutting.

Best thing ever invented. All computer cut programs were not created equal-Try them all then get FilmDesigns2.0 ss

I use mine only to cut graphics, I'm skeptical on the machines ability to cut the way I could by hand.. too many factors like shifting windows, tight seals and stuff like that to be able to have the machine cut every pattern perfect.

Thank you!!! I h@te when guys with cutters say "their" programs cut every window perfect, it can't. The reason I stopped double cutting windows years ago is because alot of times their not exactly the same on both sides, all it takes is one day of every car being off for you to stop doing that.

Cars have gotten a lot better for double cutting. I still go back to single cutting side glass if I am doing a vehicle from the '80s or before. All newer stuff I do is double cut, and I haven't had any problems with the newer stuff, but I also cut roll-downs 1/4" wider than visible, giving me a little margin for error that has worked well so far.
