i cut a practice stencil and it is spot on,
i am using corel draw to make the stencil and exporting it to signlab vinyl 7.1 to cut it
oh well back to the art work now i have got it cutting right, i thought i would make sure the way i was creating the stencil would work before spending hours apon hours to find out i was doing it wrong.

i ended up buying the "refine mh721" plotter this was $100 dollars more than the first one i looked at but after reading the reviews on the two plotters the refine was the way to go. it is classed as an entry level vinyl cutter in the sign industry with plenty of spare parts and compatable with any software that will run the roland brand plotters, plus it takes the roland blades which can be bought from pretty much any one who sells vinyl.
also the refine plotters are used by a lot of sign companies (found this out by reading up on the vinyl cutting forums)
it has plenty of spare parts avilable for it.

the rabbit brand plotter which i first looked at had very little reviews done on it and not many people seem to be buying it.
and cant seem to find may places selling spares for it.

the software that came with it was a joke, i would import somthing and it would not be the same size as it was scanned + it would be a mirror image.
no matter where you placed the object on you work space when it came to cutting it would decide where it was going to cut it and i could not move it on the cut preview.

but the sign lab does what i want and you can cut it out from where you want

ok back to work now
