But some wounds may need to be treated by a medical professional if there's a risk of infection or the cut is serious. I have the bad boy expression and SCAL 2 which will not get updated to get the sizing fixed.Most cuts and grazes can be treated at home and will start to heal in a few days. Maybe you are right, I might be better off buying it from ebay for tree size scale stuff. Thank you for telling the that slice and resize do not work, saved me from the agony of hours of work and wasted vinyl. You could create the slices and copy them into a new file as you go, maybe one slice on each page, I would think that would be the best way.īut to be honest if you can only cut 12 x 24 inches maximum with your machine I think the whole task will be more effort than it is worth when you can buy the tree all ready to apply for about £10 on the bay of e I wont confuse you with the details, suffice to say that if you slice it first and then try to re-size the slices it will fail miserably, It is something I have notified Support about and they tell me it will be fixed in a future update. I would personally create a huge custom mat and resize the file before cutting it up, you cannot at the moment accurately resize the sections in SCAL. Normally a series of test cuts cutting a small circle about 1' diameter or similar is the best way to nail down the force, speed will depend on the complexity and size of the cut, for very detailed vinyl I sometimes cut as low as 30mm/sec, for large fairly simple cuts like an 8 foot x 2 foot text only sign I may go to my machines max of 600mm/ sec. You set the force so it cuts the vinyl but not the backing and therefore do not need a mat.Īs for settings, that is really machine specific, and as vinyl needs a very accurate force setting it is often the case that two machines of the same make and model will need a different force to cut the same vinyl. Vinyl has its own mat, a thick paper backing. So after slicing it up, do you just resize it by the same scale?Īnd I totally do not know I can cut vinyl without a mat!! So just slip the vinyl in 'naked'? What's the pressure, speed and needle setting? or is there a thread you can point me to? it does sounds like a daunting task though for all the horizontal branchs. It's very helpful and infomational to learn about using path>intersection to slice it up and the arrow alignment! never thought of that! but the saving grace at least for a tree is that it's not too bad if the branch is off a little bit.
