It's one option. I've spent a couple hundred $ over the years at Kirby's .....He does very nice work.

BUT I learned nothing in the process.... For many, Kirby's is the way...

I take the Cricut as an opportunity to learn something new, just the same as the Aero Perfect inclinometer. I figured out how to use the latter as a pitch gauge for my prop modification projects. Now if I can only shake loose from the frigid NE to get real flying in......

I think Dennis Kirby is the way to go. Very reasonable prices, knows our
airplanes, great at scaling graphics for different size airframes, top
quality, and prompt service.

Yes, there is a software that works with it that allows the Cricut to
connect to a PC to cut from the PC.

A reasonably priced piece of equipment is the Cricut Expressions for
cutting pre-programmed graphics of all sorts, in sticky backed vinyl,
mylar, masking stock, etc. Wal Mart carries it for around 300$. The
problem is that it has its own software which isn't as suitable for
what we need, except for lettering (different sizes and fonts come
standard)

Has anyone been able to adapt this thing to accept instructions from a
PC? If yes, then it could cut any CAD drawings, shapes, patterns one
could come up with. It could make paint masking a cinch

Been unable to get in touch with the company that makes it to find out
if it can. A laser cutting head would also be great.
