Thank you! I don't have a laser cut machine, I actually send my designs to a place called Zap! Creatives in the UK, they print and cut them for me! They are really great to work with. 

I started out using shrink plastic, but as I made more vector designs that I sold more often than others I decided I need them kind of mass produced.

Ahhh, I see, thank you for replying
And I know Zap! (though never ordered myself
I'm not very good with vectors myself, unfortunatelly I tried doing them in the past, both in Corel and Illustrator and it didn't go too well for me But I think this custom cutting is great In jewellry shops there'a a lot of simple earrings, that are just a name or a phrase cut in plastic for example, they are quite popular, I think ^^

Well, if you ever wanna make charms with Zap, they don't have to be vectors! I have seen some people just use their picture that they have colors with Copics or whatever, you just have to be able to send them a photoshop or illustrator file, because those are the templates they provide.  I haven't gotten into the lasercutting for just colored acrylic, but I hope to soon!

Very interesting! I will take a look at their site and maybe get tempted to cut something! ^^ Though I still have a strong temptation to order with Shapeways (3D printing company) and they can be pricey! >.< So many possibilities!

I also have a hard time buying things online because of my families beliefs about it. T.X
