How I print and contour cut on my Mutoh 1324 and Graphtec 8600 with flexisign. This video was a request I hope it helps other out. Sorry for the blurry video, I should have cleaned my lens before recording!

  • I use the bomb site marks and built in laser pointer on my Graphtec 8600 cutter when I do contour cuts. I seem to have more problems with contour cuts the way you showed. I will give your way another try. Also I have to move the cutting pin into the front part of the holder. If I don't the cuts are way off.
  • Excellent Tips throughout the process. I can't tell you the frustration of having a small dust particle smack in the middle of the print. Thx for the great content!

    Nice set up and great video. I loved my Big Squeegees and still use them from time to time. Fortunately I was able to get a 54" cold laminator a bunch of years back due to a water damage insurance claim! When printing, I always "sacrifice" a few extra inches at the lead to allow for little hiccups like the one you had with the curling media! Great save on that!

    I appreciate all the information you have provided. I fell into this and I am hoping I can take it somewhere. Your videos are helping me understand this venture I am about to dive into.
  • Another great detailed video. Thank you for sharing your process.

    Hey Sean so I have to ask about your application tape dispenser and what you did to make it or where you got it from? I am currently trying to find something for a small 4'x8' table in a tiny work space/room I am working out of right now and need all the space I can get. Any help with anything is appreciated as I am just starting out and have binge watched all your videos multiple times esp. The how to start a sign shop. I am currently running flexi, versawork, illustrator & photoshop. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks for all your help and content!! You should do some videos with Q&A w/ people starting out and having questions about etsy, amazon and how to begin their sign shop journey to succeed.

    Is there a reason you don’t use material specific ICC profiles for optimal output?
  • Do you charge for re-creating artwork? Always a struggle with pricing when it comes to that.

    How is this a decal and not a sticker? Whats the difference?
