What this sheet is for
Stop re-finding the right cut and press settings for every material by writing down the ones that worked on the job where they worked.
Who it is for
Small sign makers, garment decorators, craft-cutter owners and anyone running a vinyl cutter and heat press for orders or for themselves.
How to use it
- Fill in the cutter, blade and press at the top so a later reader knows what machine the settings belong to.
- Log each design or colour layer as a row: vinyl, size, quantity, and the blade, force and speed you actually set.
- Note whether the test cut was fine or adjusted before the run.
- Record the application — method, the setting you used, and whether it peeled, bubbled or held.
What is on the sheet
2 pages, in this order:
Page 1
Printed under the title: One cutting job, from file to applied vinyl — the material, the cut settings your machine actually used, and how each piece went on.
Your settings, not ours. Blade depth, force, speed, press temperature, time and pressure all depend on your cutter, your press and the vinyl's own data sheet. Nothing of that kind is printed here. Write in the setting you used, and when a job comes out right you have the figures to repeat it.
Write-on lines: Customer / job · Job no. · Date · Cut by · Cutter · Blade fitted · Press / applicator · Substrate
Cuts — one row per design or colour layer
Table, 11 rows: Design / file · Vinyl type & colour · Size · Qty · Blade · Force · Speed · Test cut · Weeded

Application — how each piece went on, and the result
Table, 8 rows: Item · Applied to · Method · Setting used · Result · Notes
Ruled lines: Notes — artwork changes, customer instructions, what to do differently next time
Questions
Why are the force, speed and press settings blank?
Because they are yours. The right figures depend on your cutter, your blade, the press and the vinyl's own data sheet, and a number printed here would be wrong for most people who use the sheet. Write in what you used; over time the sheet becomes your own settings book.
What goes in Test cut?
Whether the test cut weeded cleanly at the first setting or you changed something. That one word is what tells you next time whether to start where you finished.
