I have the Siser Juliet vinyl cutting machine, its 2nd only to industrial grade cutters. The Leonardo design studio software is always getting upgraded and can read .SVG files as well as .Eps, but for lables with or wihtout rounded corners, any basic machine will do, including the Cricut. Other Great machines are the Brother ScanN cut , silhouette cameo 4 or 5 models and yes your steady hand, a ruler square and a craft/exacto blade. If you only have 10-50 labels to do and their for personal use, I would invest in a good printer instead, however if your have some funds to spare, and you're banging off a few hundred each month,then grab a good cutter machine. I grabbed my Siser Juliet because I knew I also wanted to do HTV( heat transfer vinyl) for T-shirts and stickers as a hobby.Good Luck and feel free to ask any additional questions. Also, watch a shit load of Youtube tuts, to understand the various machines, set- up, software and operation and accessories
