I have a sprocket plotter and need to cut some material that doesn't come punched. I remember talking to a supplier long ago that could get stuff punched by a company that provided this service but they are long gone.
Does anyone have any knowledge of that end of the manufacturing business?

Don't know if you have much to cut, but for smallish quantities, we have been known to tape the unpunched vinyl on top of a length of punched vinyl scrap in order to be able to run it through our plotter. Might help at a pinch?

Yes, that's what I've always had to do in the past. It does work okay. Just thought I'd give the alternative a shot.

Sherye, another alternative would be to ask a friend to cut it for you. Hint.

Thanks for the ideas, I'm still trying to figure out where I'm going with this.
Rick, your hint may be a good way out.
