RE: Adhesive vinyl overlays - C47 (DM42), WP31S, WP34S, newRPL variants now available!
I'm back in business!

I found a workaround that involved "fudging the numbers" during calibration to trick the machine into shifting the cuts back to the right position. I will have to recalibrate when the software is updated, but I can at least continue making overlays now...

Now I have a question for everyone about my C47 overlays:

Over the weekend, I decided to completely rebuild the overlays for the C47 from scratch. Previously I was just using the image provided in the repository, and added some cuts to make the key openings, along with some photo editing to make the colors contrast better (black background, different shades of orange and blue, and pure white for the alpha characters). I designed a DB48X overlay from scratch initially, and I am leveraging that work to try to improve the C47 overlay. (I also have a WP43 overlay in the works).

The new version has larger and bolder fonts and I think it is much easier for my aging eyes to read. I am attaching a photo of the two side by side (top by bottom actually). The original version is on top, and the new version is on the bottom. I'm curious to hear feedback on the changes from everyone...

I would prefer NOT to offer both - since it gets confusing for buyer and for me. I would rather just make a running change and anything ordered after a certain point gets the new one.
