UV Spoon Die Cuts

[VanderLaan]

Thinking about buying some UV die cuts and putting them on the back of some spoons. Waste of time? Curious if anyone has done the same and what the results were.

Crushed glow, flat UV and Crushed UV are my favorite colors to doctor spoons with.

Vinyl cutting machine.  Some guys are using the cheap cricket machines and some are using commercial machines.

They look pretty sweet. The craftsman in me wants to jump in with both feet. Can buy a lot of die cuts online for that kind of coin. 

 

I have been buying tape from flashertape.com and mad river. Any other sources I should be looking at?

[Dlott]

Mad River is the man to get it from

Yes you can buy a lot but also limits ya on what you can do I can cut ladders or whatever I want my wife uses it more than I do that’s the only reason we have one she makes custom tumblers

I buy bulk rolls from WTP and cut them on my commercial machine.

Where can we find the patterns? And where did you get the glow vinyl? My wife can only find standard colors.

You will have to design them with the software on the cutting machine.  It's not hard at all!  For glow tape, look at Mad River or Ebay.

I made Spin n glo wing cuts for my custom colors and ladder back for two of my new for 2023 colors!  A little bit of time and effort, and you can make anything!

It's all easy once you learn the program and learn tips.  I had a lot of help from Minion.  Chris was a great help when I was learning!

Local library just announced that they are going to have a cricut machine available for the public in a few weeks. Hoping I can make it work. Any advice you can share in that regard would be greatly appreciated.
