    Just bought a cutter. have been following reviews and projects since october on the silohette cutter. You can import your own designs, upload shapes and import images printed on other vinyl to have it machine cut your edges. Also had the opportunity to use one not long ago and it seems itll do all id need it to do..

    Not sure yet about the blasters event. Two out of state vacations scheduled around that time so ill see when we get closer.

    I was also looking to use it to make masks. That Silohette cutter looks like the ticket. Let me know what you think about it. I dont want anything big, just big enough to make masks for painting. I would appreciate it if someone filled me in on the printer method also.

    Ron I think I might want to get in on that, it's quite a ways off yet. I'll let you know for sure when it's closer.

    Well I gt the hull painted. I dropped my Iwata brush and had to us cheap Harbor Freight brush so detail really stinks. It'll do for now. Just got my Speed control and rest of setup stuff from OSE today. Should have it running for next Sunday.

    I do believe that's a shifter adapted to trolling motor foot pedal. Clever.

    Having looked at the FS ad, you should have taken the money offered and ran. Sunken boat with steering already acting funny, it's only a matter of time til the ESC craps out as well.

    Y'up I think it's gonna work pretty good, I just need to make a little linkage to activate the switch and it'll be done.
