Hi JAZZCNC . thanks for the reply . really appreciate the advice .... i deffo need a vac table to hold down the material so it dont move or slip when been cut .. i did think of trying to buy a kit and goin from there . although to be fair i dont know about these things so dont actually know where to start . all i know is my rolls of pvc are 1500mm wide so i would need a roller on one end to put the roll on and then pull it over the bed turn on the vac and press go . all sounds easy yet know its not gonna be like that for real ... i did ask merchant dice about it some time ago and they said for a 5ft x 10ft cut with a knife and a roller on the end was gonna be 13k... so after i picked myself back up off the floor i thought ok now what do i do . lol ... i have much to learn . will call ya at some point for a chat .. regards Daz
