That is solid for one being of one your first. I also did a Gandalf inspired disc. A white no stamp SSS Wizard. I was going to do multiple color but I ****ed up the first run. I left it on way, way too long and kind of melted teh contact paper, but somehow it turned out badass bc of it.

This right here is also the exact same reason I have one. Also the same reason I just spent a boatload more to get me a nicer one.
What the heck is a plotter?
I already want one and I don't know what it is...

A big expensive printer!

Oh. That seems like it would take the fun out of it. I see the point if you want to do the same thing on multiple discs, or if you are selling them, but I'll stick to good 'ol exacto blades.
It's not a printer, it's a cutter. It doesn't print anything.
Think of it as a CAD machine, for vinyl. The plotter follows "paths" that tell the blade where to cut.

What does a plotter cost?

Anyone know how well disccraft crystal holds dye? Is it similar to champion/z or star/esp?
Dyes very well. The only issue with Cryztal is that because it is so clear, sometimes the color doesn't seem as "deep" or dark.

Today's freshie...
...a super pearly Gold line Lat 64 Bolt. Been holding onto this disc for about 5 months, waiting for the right idea to "happen". First time dyeing Gold line plastic and I really like the way it takes dye! Now I just hope I like the way this one works on the course!
Peace,

Nice job. Very impressive! I like the sky background a lot. Was that done using shaving cream or painting it on?

Thanks Odyssey! I'm pretty happy with this one.
Used dishwashing gel and mostly Pylam dyes mixed in laundry detergent. Details here.

I've been mostly just lurking lately, but I finally uploaded some dye pics from last month.
Both of these went down to the super wonderful guys at Hazy Shade DG in Dayton OH for
the 'Dyeing for a Cause' Fundraiser/Auction/Contest

Thanks Bennett! I'll have more racing dyes coming!
This one almost ended up with a 917 on it but I didn't want to waste any of the pearly white goodness that was so fitting for the Chaparral.Thanks to all for the kind words! I really could not be happier with the results on this one. Gonna have to get some more Gold line!!!:thmbup:
Peace,

Great dyes, El Dude.
MAN I wish I had heard about the Dyeing for a Cause this year. Great event that I'd like to help out with, as would a lot of people on this thread I imagine. Make sure to spread the word on here next year!
