| Feb 5, 2020 at 2:50 | comment | added | Journeyman Geek Mod | Identification questions tend to be a bad fit simply cause they're not useful for anyone but OP and are really hard to find. Some chatrooms would be a good fit but finding the appropriate one might be tricky. Working out how to get it to work on a PC, modern or otherwise on the other hand might work, and you can sneak in "what is it" with how do I use it... | |

| Feb 4, 2020 at 13:21 | comment | added | JFoxx64 | Do you know the brand? Do you know some identifying number on the machine? If you know one of those things, you can use Google (or your search engine of choice) to start digging for it yourself. Posting it without either of those would rely on random chance that someone recognized it and I don't know a site for commercial hardware identification by picture alone. I would start by finding a model number, manufacturer number, heck maybe even a serial number (though that might not be useful), and a brand then head to your search engine with that. | |

| Feb 4, 2020 at 9:18 | comment | added | rene Mod | It is maybe wise to include that context info in your question. | |
| Feb 4, 2020 at 9:17 | comment | added | GipsyD | @rene I don't think DIY.se would be the right site, as this vinyl cutter is computer related. I think you may know it as a vinyl plotter, or maybe a sign plotter. | |
| Feb 4, 2020 at 9:15 | comment | added | rene Mod | A lot of sites have a kind of hate towards identification questions. Not knowing what a vinyl cutter is, did you consider DIY.se? | |
