How about this one? It is a 30", not sure if I want to get into a 48". Ebay store in Canada, so that works out better for me too. http://www.vipstudio.com/NEWEBAY/f_sm30.html

I was hoping to keep it below $500, but I know 'you get what you pay for' is too true most of the time, maybe around $1000 or so.

I live in a small town with no one in the area that makes vinyl signs. I have been thinking about getting a vinyl cutter/plotter for a few years now. Mainly for doing boat/snow machine numbers and truck lettering, and the odd sign for my store. This will mainly be for personal use, I do not have the time to go right into commercial sign making. Any suggestions for hardware and software? For the amount of use I would have, I could not justify a high budget. I seen a bunch on ebay, but am wary about how good a job they would do.
