Craft Robo
Hi all
I’m posting this on behalf of a friend. I have a friend that does alot of rc racing and would like to be able to cut small vinyl’s stickers for his models.
He would like to buy a package that includes the Design master software. What he would like to know is will that software allow him to get images and logos from the internet and cut them out in vinyl??
Thanks in advance.

No software will cut an image, only vector files, to do images you will need a printer too.Hope that this helps.

Sorry. I now it wouldnt print. But would it cut an outline of a logo. For instance a Car Make badge. If we got the badge logo off the internet?

I don’t know the machine but if it is a cutter then yeah I would have thought so.
You only get what you pay for though, all machines have limitations of some sorts.

Hi Paul
Also depends on how small the logos / letters need to be for a RC, a good quality plotter set up right will cut lettering 3-5mm high, any less and you need a tangentical (sp?) plotter, I doubt the craft robo is such a beast.Ian :lol1:

just buy the stuff from fleabay it works out cheaper than trying to do it yourself.
or asking for a "friend"

My wife has a craft robo, it is not really a good machine for doing intricate stuff.
I’d do as Peter suggests

I thought that might be the case. He paints alot of shells and he wanted to do some Ferrari Badges and other pieces to use as paint masks.
Cheers for the advise

I am sure if your friend went to a sign shop they could cut you a load of stencil masks very cheaply. A few standard vector files, various small sizes cut on a roll of stencil mask, 1m would get a lot. No weeding (customer weeds) for the sign shop or app tape, would be cheap.
