First thank you for the help with the transfer tape. The local sign store gave me some to try.
I guess my first question is this- I have a Epilog mini 50watt and we are cutting 1/4" birch plywood with an image dry mounted over top. When cutting the air assist seems to blow and exhaust everything to the left over our image, so the soot etc. is thicker on the left of the image. I realise that the transfer tape should resolve this, but is there anything that can be done to reduce it?
Second we are getting a good cut at a speed of 18, 100% power, (getting incomplete cut at 20 speed and 100% power) but getting a lot of charring of the cuts along the edges. We have had the frequency anywhere from 500 to 2,000. What is the best frequency to get that nice honey color along the edge of the cut lines? (lower or higher)
