    Vinyl cutters will last you years and years without any real maintenance.
    they are work horses. treat them correct and you will pay almost nothing back in comparison to what they make you.

    a "cheap cutting strip" ?
    I am not sure what you class as cheap, but buy a genuine strip, get it on your machine and start making money. dont cut corners on something that is ultimately your bread and butter income.
    i mean, how much can a thin sticky back nylon strip be? 😕

    Agree with Rob, your probably talking £25…..and this is all you’ll spend in maintenance for many years!

    mine is a 160… not listed… goes up in price by size..

    however i did lots of cut-thru for a multi-roll job, knackered the strip for everyday use, so next time I do it, I have to add a strip to the quote

    Sorry Dave, I was thinking about mine for a 600mm as they’re probably the most common size 😳

    Is the machine under warranty still? not worth risking invalidating any warranty you may still have to save a few quid on a cutting strip.
