This one looks crazy spinning! Took me a while, so many squares.

Nice! I Gotta start using sign vinyl, masking tape is just not cutting it to keep up with you guys.

Sign vinyl and transfer tape is the way to go. The residue is a pain to clean off, but you can get nice crisp lines and its less prone to bleed. You can pick it up cheap on ebay or find a sign supply place near you if you want it even cheaper. I buy in bulk because I use it for other stuff and I have my vinyl cost at about $00.16 per disc.

[hippiediscdude]

Thanks for the positive feedback! I added this one to my arsenal, cant wait to see it flying on a sunny day!

Sweet dye. I bet that is a really cool effect in the air.

I am not normally a huge fan of dye jobs, but that is insane.

Stare into the center of the disc for 10 seconds. Then look down the fairway towards the basket. You now have a grid that you can superimpose over the hole, to help you avoid obstacles and hit lines.

Seriously, that is a clean dye job, very precise, cool design, and I personally like it because it's symmetrical. Nice work.

What do you mean by transfer tape? Is it double sided tape to keep the vinyl down? Never used vinyl so I'm a little clueless.

Very nice design. How long did it take you to cut it out?

 

[volklgirl]

That is just sick! Nice job.

Very nice design. How long did it take you to cut it out?

I have a plotter so the cutting time wasn't bad. Weeding out all the little squares correctly took me the better part of an hour. If I was hand cutting it I cant imagine how long it would have taken me.

 

[vettekrazy]

plotter or not that one had to be time consuming, great work!

Transfer tape is a low tack plastic sheet that you use to transfer the cut vinyl on to the disc. I know alot of people also use masking tape. It allows you to cut out the design and then transfer it to the disc instead of cutting on the disc. You can reuse the same piece quite a few times so it is a pretty economical option also.
