DO YOU REALLY NEED AN EXPENSIVE VINYL CUTTER?
#commissionsearned #vinylcuttermachine #bestvinylcutter #decals #decalbusiness #tshirtsbusiness #rdidecals
In this video we explain the reason why we use cheap vinyl cutters like the cameo 4 when we own a Graphtec machine which is more expensive. I explain the difference based on all the projects we have done with these machines and give you our honest opinion on whether you should buy an expensive vinyl cutter or not.

Have you tried ninja transfers?
We haven’t yet
My wife and I are starting our own printing business. I filed for our business name and started getting some equipment. This has been so helpful thank you.
I have a Graphtec CE6000-60 I bought in 2006, a MK1 with no ARMS(no optical eye so no contour cutting) Its been under wraps for 7 years now but still in good condition. Should I get it out of mothballs out but one of these Cameo's?
Appreciate your honesty based on your experience. You guys have done it all. I bought a Cameo 4 based on your recommendation and it’s very nice. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for your support we love our cameo 4 too even tho sometimes it feels like it doesn’t want to work 😅
Problem is there is no help with graph tech no help, I’ve wanted one for years but the horrible stuff I heard in learning curve is why I never purchased one I’m happy my Romeo cutter. I love your videos I respect hustle and consistency
I keep having problems where the tape will not grab my decals no matter if I have my force down or not and blade depth at its lowest please help me
I hear sirens 😮
What font is easy to weed? Thanks.
Would love information about outsourcing. Specifically Banners. Thanks for all you guys share!!
On your magnet signs, have any of your customers complained about the magnet, losing magnetism?
Hello! So far we haven't heard that. I don't know what brand you use but we've been using magnum magnetics for years and they seem to hold up for at least a couple of years. Also, we use the thickest material (.76mm) we can get from our supplier. Thanks for watching!
Man thats really awesome work... Ive got the cameo 4, but need to learn to do the multiple colors with the registration marks. I know wirt silhouette studio its not super hard, Ive just never done it. Thank you for the video
You're very welcome! we love our vinyl cutters; there's so much you can do with them :)
I am in the same position I need to leave my job, has a single mother I just need to give myself and my children a better life I just started buying one machine at a time I know I will waste a little material trying to learn how the cameo machine works : but thanks to you and others like you on this platform for your videos.
Wow! we love hearing this, I know this business isn't easy plus nothing is guaranteed. But I think this is the best approach: investing little by little and learning in the process. We saved enough to buy the equipment and materials and once we had enough, the next goal was to save enough income for a whole year, that way we had more chances of success. I strongly recommend you learn about outsourcing small items like business cards and flyers; you will get a lot of customers asking for those products. We wish you the best!
This is exactly how I make all my customer magnets 👍.
Right on :)
where did you get the vinyl and if you remember, do you have a link?
Hello! our customer provided the decals; I believe he bought them from Amazon. Honestly, they weren't the best quality specially the transfer lol.
Have y’all ever encountered a window that was too wide and you had to overlap the vinyl? Can you make a video on that?
That’s Nice! How much do you charge for that? The full complete work for the vinyl Magnet Signs?
How can we make the home made solution

Unfortunately they just came out with the 24" Cameo after ai had already bought the 12" Cameo. Although I bought mine back in2019.
We have both the 12" & 24" I think the smaller cutter makes it easier keeping the vinyl aligned when cutting long projects. It has only been a few months that we bought the 24" cutter, and we still got so much to learn but we find it a little challenging cutting longer projects with it.
I have used the holder built in to the Cameo, to cut 48" banners. It works pretty good with 12" Oracel rools.
We use the one that came with the cutter once in a while, especially smaller rolls of vinyl. Thanks for watching!
I also order the shirts once I get a down none refundable payment of 75% down. And although I only stock a few tee shirts, I only stock the colors and sizes I know that sell fairly quick...like black, red, royal blue, and kelly green. And sizes like Large, XL and 2XL
That's smart! unfortunately, we had to learn the hard lol. Thanks for sharing with us!
Thanks for sharing!!! How can I contact you?
Hello! I will leave our email: info@stickeraficionados.com
Great video. I have experience in the sign / graphics industry but I always enjoy watching your videos. I think it's good to have mentors even when you have experience. I'll be joining shortly. Thanks for all the good info.
You're welcome! Thanks a lot for supporting our channel :)
Please provide outsourcing info for the yard signs also when to purchase the color black matted magnets thx
Hello! For outsourcing yard signs, we use www.gotprint.com but lately we have been using eBay as the prices are cheaper. For the black matted magnet, I will leave the link. We apply the vinyl manually and I will also leave a video in case you need it. Thank you for your support!

Hey guys! Love the channel. You have helped me tremendously. What makes a font good for weeding? Is it the thickness of the letters?
Basic fonts that have smooth lines and not too much details.
We try to use bold fonts and try to stay away from cursive fonts whenever possible. Impact and Arial fonts are two examples of easy to weed out fonts.
Thank you for sharing. 🙏 👍🇺🇸
You're welcome! Thanks for watching :)
Great work!
Thanks!
Great videos, very good information.
Love the videos and it is great information for whoever wants to get into making signs. We understand that marketing what you do benefits your business, but like any business, it’s not as easy as quitting your job and the money will flow. Graphic design requires knowledge and most importantly time to learn. A few years back a RUclipsr preached how renting dumpster trailers was a lucrative business so many people quit their job and ended up learning the hard way that it was a horrible mistake. The RUclipsr then decided to delete all his videos after he saturated the market with information that did not yield the results that people were expecting. I am not saying that is what you are doing because RDI has amazing information, but at the end of the day it is for content. I would include the tough times as well so people can prepare for it and then learn so they can be successful if they want to get into this business. Anyway thanks again for the great content and please take my post as constructive and helpful for people .
Another awesome video. Thank you for keeping it real.
Thank you
Does the $500 include production and application?
I noticed in your state your signs for the business don't have a contractor license
What are you talking about? Our customers?
@@RDIdecals In California we contractors have to include our license on our vehicle decals. I was just wondering if your state requires it.
It depends on the state and the circumstance. For instance, in TN "A contractor's license is required prior to contracting (bidding or negotiating a price) whenever the total cost of the project is $25,000 or more." And apparently in certain counties "If a contractor advertises as "licensed", they must include their license ID number and type of license."
@@Phianett got it, thank you for the information.

Do you design the decals for these companies or do the companies supply you with exactly what they want and you turn it into a decal for them
Hello! Most of our customers provide a logo, of course we still got to do some work to it but it is not as much as creating something from zero. Whenever a customer doesn’t have a logo we provide one and sometimes we use resources such as Freepik.com
Awesome thank you
Why this vinyl cutter always slips the vinyl ? It happens to me only!! Or is there anyone else who is facing this problem!
Hello! Unfortunately we have had the same issue a couple of times. We try to position the center of pinch roller exactly on the edge of vinyl and this seems to help a bit. Before we start cutting, we also pull the vinyl a little bit to see whether or not the vinyl will move.
فنان 🎉
I don't understand why that cutter and not the one you already have?!? Why twice the same dimensions?
We teach people how to use different cutters with different budgets as not everyone can afford a Graphtec ce6000-60 in other words we are in the content creating business not on decal business
Can this vinyl work on boats?
Yes but we would use oracal 751 instead it’s longer lasting it can last up to 5 years outdoors but it is more expensive
@@RDIdecals Thanks
Hi, I’m getting ready to make a sign for a brand new store. I’m seeing that oracle 651 is not recommended since it’s calendared vinyl. What are your thoughts on what I should use? Obviously I want something that will last as long as possible. Thanks!
Hello! You should look at Oracal 751 & 951 those will last a lot longer and they are easier to work with specially for curved surfaces. Only downside is that they are more expensive. Oracal 651 is good and affordable and this is the reason we use them for most of our products.
@@RDIdecals thanks for the reply! I ended up going with 951
What are the dimensions of the magnets and where can I purchase the logos thx
Those magnets were 24x24 inches and the logos were available in our old website as this is a old video but we might have some available in near future
👏👏👏 Bravo
very cool...i learned two things from the video....i was trying to figure out how to curve my letters in corel and i love the distressed effect thanks
Thank you 🙏
Such honest borthers. i love it !
can i ask how did you multi colour print? do you stack different vinyl on top of each other or do you actauls colour print it ?
Hello! We used to stack up different layers of vinyl but now we just outsource our full color transfers. It can be a little expensive but it saves tons of time. We get our transfers from proworld.com
copy and paste they are free but you'll only get fonts " 141 Free Distressed Fonts "
Always love the videos, I can see the improvements in the production and editing. Really enjoy watching the installs and finished product. Keep up the good work.
Thank you 🙏
Does your AT-75 really come off the roll as easy as it appears in your videos? Mine is like pulling teeth to get it to unroll for application to the vinyl 😢
Hello! The same happens to us when the transfer is running out. The smaller the roll is the harder it is to unroll it.
Do you have a video on your strategies on how you find your customers?
Hello! We have a couple of videos where we talk a bit about strategies we apply. We don’t really go too much into details but the main tool we use is Facebook (local garage sales groups) even TikTok works for us. I will leave a link to video where we talk a few things about this: ruclips.net/video/eNMs0Rwdo_A/видео.html
Thank you! I bought one a year ago. I have been frustrated with it. Maybe I will try again. Thanks for the tip about vinyl not being so tight. I will save this to my playlist.
You are so welcome! Hope you were able to find a solution to the issue.
Take note what these brother have to say they tell the truth and don't miss anything out .
We appreciate it 🙏
