      Oh no...hope you got it now? Basically create a image in DS and you can cut it out on vinyl (651 if you want it Permenant) and then use transfer tape to transfer your vinyl to your sanded board. Really important to make sure your surface is sanded

      Oh no! I’ve had this happen to me multiple times, and I know how frustrating it is, the only thing I would suggest or see it might be, is your wood is not sanded enough or if it was sand enough maybe it had too many pieces of particles on it after you sanded it.

    • @icreatecrafts8462
      @icreatecrafts8462  4 года назад

      Sorry to hear this, that is so frustrating happens to me more times than none. I think it's because your wood needs to be sanded better. I have never heard of stain being pulled up, I have had paint come off. Either way i would say it's because your surface is not smooth enough or your transfer tape is too sticky. Hope this helps

I have the maker, but honestly I havent done much other than cutting vinyl and a dabbled a bit with fabric. I need to create more things using this awesome machine. I would suggest getting the maker because its the newest machine but it's the most expensive. I had the explore which was great, but one of the clamps broke on me so I upgraded to the maker. I dont want to influence you, but I would totally buy the maker, but wait for a sale. Hope this helps and welcome aboard 😉
