Default Vinyl Cutter

I would like a vinyl cutter so that I can make simple shapes and letters. I plan on putting the vinyl on acrylics - like clipboards and cups or making monograms for windows. It does not need to be a high volume vinyl cutter because it will not be used on a daily basis - probably only used once a week or so.

I am looking for something inexpensive and that is 24". One on a stand or desktop. My lettering will not be large, but I read that it is easier to find rolls of vinyl in 24" versus 12."

Also -what type software would I need?
Any recommendations on where to buy the vinyl rolls from and which type to buy? I tried looking up vinyl and see that there are different types.

Thanks for any help!

if your just starting out go with UScutter. You can find them on Ebay a lot.
They give you everything you need minus the vinyl and a exacto knife.
they even give you a software to work with.

I got a FastPlot vinyl cutters from www.macroenter.com, i was looking at us cutter and didn't like that they had a trillion of spam listings on ebay. personally i find that sick. Macro enter was friendly and offered free tech support so i went with them. So far i've been making all sorts of decorations for walls and even got made some hotrod decals for my husband and some of his buddies lol!

I really like my USCutter, it's great, even if it is not working with Mac and has no materials basket either. There are so many free svg/s out there, I'm working on a Valentine's project with some svg/s from https://www.svgdesigns.com/list/svg/freesvgdesigns
