May the Fourth (force) be with you

Today being the 4th of May

is

 STARWARS DAY

MAY THE 4th BE WITH YOU 

Here is a Flag I made for Neal to put on his bike

today. ( he went for a ride to the beach today )

(designed in inkscape and cut on the ZING 

using heat transfer vinyl)

Vinyl signs "Keep Cyclist safer"

My Hubby is going into the city today for a 

bike safety rally  and needed some 

signs to hang on his bike  so here 

is what he designed and i cut 

using vinyl  on the Zing.

I kiss cut the vinyl but also turned back the force and 

let it cut twice so it done a clean cut  worked wonderful

Space Invaders bike helmet

I managed to get some all weather refection tape 

in white and yellow and hubby wanted a space invaders

for his helmet. So as i had a fair bit of the white and not much 

of the yellow I thought i would try out on the white first 

to get the cutting on the zing all set up.

Which only two three tweaks to get it right.

 So then knowing that Hubby wanted yellow for 

his helmet I loaded it in the machine and pushed cut

UGGGGG BUT what a problem it did not cut it is a 

mess.   REASON (with out me realizing) the

white is 0.25mm and the yellow is 0.30mm

the first piece of yellow i had i was able to squeeze

out this one for the helmet upping the force of the cut and 

the amount of cuts it does (even though i still had to use

knife in three places)

Tip even though you think it is the same stuff 

best to check the thickness
