Hey Everyone
There is a discussion taking place on the developers list right now pertaining to adding control of Vinyl Cutters to Inkscape. It is in the very early stages, the developers are not sure whether to add direct support to Inkscape or to an upstream printing application such as CUPS.
Although I am on the developers list I have contributed precisely nothing to Inkscape, so I can hardly call myself a developer.
I don't know what is the best way to approach these issues but I feel confident that I can decipher the command set used to control a cutter. I would like to do so and then turn this over to our talented developers.
I would like to buy a cutter for this purpose.
What would be the most ideal model to start with?
I am hoping to spend under $500 U.S for this. Once we determine a good model to start with, I will likely search for a used one. If anyone has a popular model that they no longer need perhaps I could purchase it from you, could you please post the model number in this thread?
I am short of money this month but I should be ready sometime in July or August.
Thanks in advance-Patrick
