[@MrArtsky]

I love your work ! Thank you for Share it ! Where can I buy the laminate machine that you have ?

[@isainovski]

So James you look at that baby getting that new BN2 20 prints faster than the Bn20

[@joebenavides7258]

Wow you make it seem so easy.I been having problems masking those big decals I’m going to try your method.and then any suggestions on why my cut lines are so crook it when I put my files in versaworks

[@down2stick203]

I would need more info on those cut lines.

[@HGE2007]

Does roland bn20 cuts out the stickers too or you need todo that with a separate machine?

[@negretem1]

Do you ever make tee shirt images/transfers?

[@VinylSkillz]

Thank you for this video. I do the same thing you do but in my apartment. This month im moving into a retail space like yours but smaller, what other services besides HTV and Sublimation should i consider providing next for customers? Thanks for your time?

[@down2stick203]

I would add as much as you can but I tried to do too much at once and got overwhelmed. Maybe start with what you're best at and go from there

[@VinylSkillz]

@@down2stick203 thx

[@kofianane-sekyere6567]

Great video, I appreciate the thorough explaination of everything. Can you tell me where you got the mini roller from and the larger lamimate roller machine?

[@down2stick203]

aMAZON. Just look up cold laminator. I used to give link but the one I bought is gone.

[@down2stick203]

Mini roller is from cricut.

[@kofianane-sekyere6567]

@@down2stick203 thanks for the info

[@desertgardencollective]

What transfer tape are you using for the vinyl? Also what linear cutter is that? (The ruler that cuts) thank you!

[@down2stick203]

The tape I use mainly is Enduramask. The Ruler I think is just a Cricut ruler with guard. I don't cut with it very often but the guard saves my fingers! Link to tape: signwarehouse.com/products/enduramask-mhc-160g-clear-grid-medium-high-tack-transfer-tape?variant=32001797881949

[@edjuncker8888]

What is the smallest image you can make? I am looking at this machine, If it can print 1/64 scale designs for police cars. Are you aware if the can go that small?

[@down2stick203]

The smallest I have done is 1" inch diameter but I have cut as low as 3/8 size pieces out of images. I am sure it can print smaller, the resolution on your image may will make a difference for sure.

[@MrReddwarf123]

The cutter you use to trim up that you place over vinyl then press down to cut, what is it called please I need one.

[@down2stick203]

The paper cutter? Just a standard paper cutter from any office supply store. I would recommend the largest size. Mine only goes to 12 inches.

[@odestategraphics]

How much do you charge for 8.5"by11" stickers or car decals printed with the roland bn-20a

[@down2stick203]

For that size I usually do about $10

[@manciamusic]

Im curious about how much i should charge client for all this production here in Atlanta GA...i got A BN20A

[@HGE2007]

Just go to a print shop and ask for a quote see how much they charge and base of that you can see how much to charge

[@composit1]

I’m considering purchasing a Roland and I’m genuinely curious as to why you used vinyl cutters for some of the jobs instead off using the Roland print and cut for all of the jobs? I have so much to learn

[@down2stick203]

I started with the cameo and then my 30" inch plotter. That one cuts larger than rolands. It's just faster to load the other cutters than the roland.

[@mghtrock48]

@@down2stick203is it possible to use thin vinyl, laminate, then rerun it through the Roland to have cut?

[@bethdobbs1602]

What kind of paper or media were you running thru your Roland?

[@down2stick203]

I have been using Prismjet 203 standard printable vinyl.

[@odestategraphics]

What is the selling price for 3.5" circle stickers please?

[@down2stick203]

I started at $3 basically $1 per square inch. But I noticed more sales by doing two stickers for $3. I always gave them an extra sticker anyway so I figured I would add it to the listing

[@joetagg1961]

Can you print photographs with this machine ??

[@down2stick203]

Absolutely yes. I've done em on stickers and photo paper.

[@user-zb3sm5bm9l]

what cutter are you using?

[@down2stick203]

I have an R-series for my larger vinyl. Cameo Silhouette for smaller vinyl. Roland bn-20 for print stickers.

[@dandee28]

weeding is the worst part of making vinyl decals lol. too bad theres nothing that can speed it up

[@nicolemassay3343]

I see you have spelling errors sir... 🙉
