I picked up a refurbished 24" cutter frm Sign Warehouse for $200.
It came with the beginner software, so I can't modify anything to a vector files
Took a while to get it set up in my computer correctly, but I'm having fun with it now.
Feel free to send me any cool vector files that I can play with.

They look good! I read your thread and just had to go buy a "MH" series from US Cutter. What file type did you cut all these stickers from? My vinyl didnt come yet but everything else it set up and running. Thanks!!!

I use an image converter to turn them into SVG files. It don't work with everything but I would say %85 it is successful.

This will help you a lot

I picked up a Brother machine a couple years ago. Its pretty cool and anything I can do in vinyl I can do in embroidery BUT . . . . and its a big but . . . there is very little corolation between vector art software and embroidery. I have had to learn a whole new ulility and a whole new way of setting up graphics. The formats are heavily gaurded and there really not a whole lot of similarities. Its cool but waaayyy different. I kinda have to laugh every time I go into the sewing and embroidery supply shop to get some more colors or stabilizer lol there usually a couple of blue hairs milling about an me in there. The lady I usually buy stuff from always tries to getme to do some of there classes :D somewhow I think I may stand out in there
