Thank you for explaining the process. The seam has really been my issue. I am just starting so I’m trying to figure out how this all works and I appreciate how you broke it down. Thank you
I'm soooo glad I watched this before attempting to make my first tumbler, it turned out absolutely perfect!!! What a confidence booster!! 😁 Thank you!!
This is absolutely what I needed. I have been getting that white line from my seams and I couldn’t figure out what I was doing wrong. Have ruined so many tumblers. Can’t wait to try this method when I get home. Will update when I do this
Fantastic! Don’t forget to put any side of the design that may have white overhang on the top, overlapping the side that has the design all the way to the edge!
@@industrialfringe953 update. I did have an oopsie but I’m pretty sure I got these down now. The dark colors were kicking my butt and I was just about to give up on those until watching your videos. Thank you so much
Just happened to come across your videos and have really been enjoying them. It took me a year to set my equipment up to start Sublimating I was so nervous hahaha, But now that I have I am addicted and have so much to learn. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Excellent tutorial! The video is full of very helpful instructions that I'll be using from now on when I wrap my tumblers. The blooper real at the end was really funny.
Wow, that is an amazing Tumblr. I am going to have to check into those matte finish for my tumblers as well. But wow what a great covering on your Tumblr.
Thank you for this great video and sharing your knowledge! QUESTION: I am wondering if you have tried cutting slits on the top side of the tape before you fold it over in an effort to avoid/minimize the kinks. Just wondering if you’ve tried and it does not make a difference or if you’ve not tried. Inquiring minds want to know. Again, thanks for your videos. I like that they are very detailed.
Fantastic tutorial, very well explained. Can I sublimated in toaster over without convection? If so, what temperature and for how long. Thank you for your help.
Hey! While I haven’t tried it, you should be fine with subbing in a toaster oven, you’ll just need to plan on rotating it during the cook. (Convection circulates the heat for you!) I’d try getting one from a thrift store! And remember, never use an oven that you use to cook food! The sublimation gases aren’t good for you!
Do you have a video how you are measuring and cutting your prints.also I know all presses are different but cerious what time and temp your using on your press
Maybe I should put together a short video on how I cut my paper and what overlap I use. That’s a great idea! I’ll definitely add it to the ‘video idea list’! As far as time and temp, check out a couple of my other videos. I have one on sublimating in an oven (ua-cam.com/video/eIPS9qICzkA/v-deo.html) and another on subbing in a press! ua-cam.com/video/eIPS9qICzkA/v-deo.html
I enjoyed watching your tutorial. I have been looking for something someone did different than I do because of the top or bottom rim issues. I have come to think it may have something to do with the size of the tumbler press tube or just the quality of the press though I am uncertain. I saw one woman’s press which the tube was much ‘longer’ than mine leaving more space at both ends of her tumbler. Just guessing though. I have also noticed that some cut their designs a tad bit shorter from the bottom curve so I’ll be trying that too. Thank you again for a great tutorial. I haven’t rolled my bottom edge on a towel as you did so I’ll try that too. 👍
I’m so glad you enjoyed! I’m sure press length has something to do with good edges. Or more specifically, shorter press lengths! Also, I’m sure quality of press has a lot to do with it. I’ve seen more than a few people have issues with the cheaper presses. Thanks for watching!
Hey, Roger! I do 365 degrees for 50 seconds, rotate 180 degrees, 50 more seconds, rotate 90 degrees, 25 seconds, rotate a final 180 degrees for 25 more seconds. Details are in this video. ua-cam.com/video/yOqxHEZgPwk/v-deo.html Thanks for watching!
Thank you! I set my press to 365 degrees and press for 50 seconds, rotate 180 degrees, another 50 seconds, rotate 90 degrees for 25 seconds, then rotate 180 degrees for a final 25 seconds. Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for this video! Is this a 30 oz Tumbler? I gave the same mug/tumbler press from HPN and am having a problem getting the time and temp right. Thank you!
You have to make sure the paper is flat and tight, and then you have to make sure both seams are pressed down really tightly, especially where the top piece is overlapping the underneath. Thanks for watching!
I was having issues and I realized I was pulling the tape too tight and it was creating air pockets. Even when I tapped down and thought I was pushing air it it was still there. Pull paper tight but not tape to tight. I hope this helps
Hallo schönes Video, ich sublimiere im Ofen und mein Edelstahlbecher ist mit 190 Grad und 5 min. statt schwarz lila geworden, was mache ich falsch? Bitte um Hilfe🤔
Stellen Sie sicher, dass Ihr Iven korrekt ist. Es sollte viereinhalb Minuten lang eine Temperatur von 365 Grad haben. Von Lila habe ich noch nie gehört, aber Grün ist zu wenig gekocht. Danke fürs zuschauen!
I just found your channel. Great information, I just started sublimation and I’m have trouble with my tumblers that have black come out brown . Do you have any tips on what I could do? I would appreciate any feedback. Thank you
Hey, Margie! If your blacks are coming out brown, you’re baking too long and/or your temp is too high. Feel free to join the Facebook group. We can definitely help you out! And thanks for watching!
Hi! Unless I’m trying to show how to to something in an oven as well as a press, if it fits in my press, that’s my go-to! Check out my video on how I use my press for more details on time and temp. And because I use a press, I don’t need the silicone wrap or shrink wrap. But when I do bake in an oven, I use shrink wrap after taping. Thanks for watching!
HELP !!! Heat Tape seems to have sublimated to tumbler, leaving yellow marks. I’ve never had trouble with heat tape. Any ideas how to remove it. Thank you in advance. Your videos are so helpful. Keep them coming. Joyce, Jus-Say-N-Signs
Hey, Joyce! I’m not sure the tape residue can be removed. I would probably try a little Goo Gone or something like that to try and buff it out. But be careful that you don’t remove any of the sublimation! And I use and swear by this tape from Amazon! amzn.to/3eh4LBU Best of luck, and thanks for watching!
My actual print size is 9-1/4” x just a hair under 8-1/8”. I ad about 1/8” black paper on the overlap side. If you’re having issues, definitely get this! It makes it easy to measure exact sizes! I swear by it. amzn.to/36HZxOV Thanks for watching!
does the white part that you leave on the side of the image go on top of the image on the other side or underneath when you go to tape the image on the tumbler?
Gigi, my apologies for not clarifying! The white part goes on top. It allows for an extra little overhang. (Don’t put it on the bottom, or you’ll have a white stripe!) Thanks for watching!
I notice that your tumbler is painted white. It paint melting a concern when sumlimating? Would that mean I could sublimate yetis and hydroflasks? Also is adhesion/duability a concern when sublimating over a painted surface?
The tumblers I use (and what others use as well) are white with a coating over them to take the sublimation ink. They’re white so they have a “blank” surface to work with. You can only sub items that have a special coating. Because the ink is infused Inyo the coating, there is no durability concern. Thanks for watching!
You mentioned in this video that you leave a 1/16” to 1/8” white seam on your print. You didn’t say why. I’ve been taught to leave no seam and just make sure the two seams are tight against each other. I have pretty good luck with that but not 100% of the time. Do you always leave a seam? Is it better to do it that? way.
I overlap because I know I could never consistently get the size exactly right, and I’d rather have a 1/16” overlap with potentially a slightly darker mark than to have even the smallest white line. And usually I get no darker color at the seam. I’ve also noticed that tumblers are sometimes ever so slightly different in size. By having that little bit of overlap, I don’t have to worry about that! Thanks for watching!
i've been having some issues with my tumblers, do you think you could help me out? I keep getting like white markings all over my tumbler and on the top. its not paper residue but it does look like paper residue. it kind of looks like moisture in a way but no matter what paper/tumbler/print I try I get this happening
Hi Roy! My tumbler measures 9.25 in diameter. Do you make your image exactly the same. I’ve been printing 9.27 and get a seam line. It might be my taping but I wonder if I should print exact?
Hey< I think we talked about this in the group, but I just realized your difference of .02 is only about 1/50 of an inch. You may actually need a little more overlap! I try to have about 1/8” of overlap, but sometimes have just a bit more.
I could absolutely do one! I’ll need to order a few, so it will be a little later before I can get around to making the video (plus I have a few I’m already working on). What are your issues? (Join the Facebook group and it will be easier to talk back and forth!) Oh, and thanks for watching!
@@industrialfringe953 Im using an amazon tumbler press that does up to 30oz but there is about 2-3 inches of exposed tumbler surface area when pressing and im seeing awful tape lines/what looks like vertical print lines/discoloration in my solid full wraps. I do your 20oz protocol to a T and make FLAWLESS 20oz tumblers. I need help! My temp is 365 for 4 passes at 18 seconds a pass to try and keep all sides heated. I rotate 45 or so degrees at a time.
Started to watch your videos which are very informative. However, when you start showing process(es), except for learning how to initially tape the drink ware it is next to impossible to keep up! Are the tutorials for setting up templates, and making adjustments in photoshop on seams. Your directions are thorough, it’s hard to keep up with steps❗️Again I appreciate your show very informative❗️
My paper sticks to everything I have to scrub quite vigously for about 15 minutes. I don't know how everyone gets to just unwrap it with no sticking. I'm using sawgrass paper and a sawgrass 500 printer. Frustrated I am
Drop your temp to 365 and try. I do 365 degrees and press for 50 seconds, rotate 180 degrees, press another 50 seconds, rotate 90 degrees, press 25 seconds, rotate 180 degrees and press a final 25 seconds. I think you may have it too hot.
They had a something like these on Amazon BEFORE Christmas and now they is nothing like this to be found there. So of anyone has one they would love to donate I’d love to have one bc I don’t see myself paying that much when I usually use the tape resistance🎉
Hey! Great question! With the tape I use, I’ve taped these directly to tumblers, clear & frosted glass cans, ceramic coffee mugs and metal, and I have never had any residue. There are yellow tapes out there that leave a residue, but I’ve yet to have this happen with this brand. amzn.to/3eh4LBU Thanks for watching!
