Samcraft is a channel all about educating, inspiring, motivating, encouraging, and sharing the things I've learned since starting my own small business in 2018.
In today's video I show you two new tools that will help you increase your product lineup and expand your small business with laser engraving! I have a Vevor hat press and Vevor heat press to show you. I use the xTool P2 laser to engrave and cut laserable leatherette from JDS Industries and make custom patches. I make trucker hats, patches for baseball caps, drink carriers, tote bags, craft bags, and more!

Nice job, a couple of things to help you out. When doing hats you need to flip out the sweat band so that when you press the hat you won’t get marks on the bottom of the hat. Also watch that the cap bill is not being marred by the top heat press. I put a piece of silicone on the bill to keep it from being marred by the press. Go job Sam.
Nice presentation, I just order a hat press.
I've been considering that same hat press for a little while now. I've been working on some hat designs. I made 1 that says I'm here cause u broke something too. Which is fitting for me because I work an industrial maintenance job. I feel your pain on running out of space, but I can't help it I love tools and adding more hobbies to the mix. I need to start selling projects so the hobbies can pay for themselves. Keep making and stay awesome.
Make sure to press your object for a few seconds to remove wrinkles first THEN line up to press your item. A little bit of friendly advice for you my boy. Good video 🤟
I just started this video and the puns in the beginning are hilarious. Very news channel vibes.
Good info. My wife's business is tons of clothing. Next you need is a sublimation printer to really make custom clothing. If interested there are budget hacks to get into sublimation printing using a standard printer. Keep up the great videos, sir!
Good video. I've used the brown/black leatherette to make some patches for our model train club and they worked great. One thing I would suggest on the big tote bag is that you iron it and take out any wrinkles before adhering the patch.
Love this. I haven’t done any leather yet on my laser machines. Love these ideas and love the offset of your logo on your hat
Thanks Steve! These were surprisingly easy to engrave and cut -- don't take much power really.
@@Samcraftcom my 20watt pro D1 should handle fine shouldn’t it
Amazing video like always!!!👏👏👏
Thanks!
These are something I'm VERY interestd in, as I've been playing with the idea of offering the hat patch service in small batches to my day job salesfolk.. We can get large orders done easily though our vendors (I work for a promotionals company), but typically they frown on small-batch and one-offs.. This may push me over the edge into the 'ordering now' territory, lol.
That hat looks nice on you
You only have yourself to thank! LOL
So cool! Great Demo. Thanks.
Great video! Love how fast the heat presses are. I can see how they would be a great addition to laser work. 😍
Looks awesome! With your shop filling up you may need to secure some of that tractor/farm equipment structure for a new Samcraft HQ.
That's actually being planned right now! :) Not the new carport, but a "Samcraft 2.0" space. :) I hope to get it built before the end of the year.
Thanks Sam I have been following you for a very long time!
👍👍👍👍👍♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ oh wow! Can hardly wait to see what items you will offer with these amazing machines♥️♥️♥️♥️
The hat looks great bro! Great information. Thank you!
My first time here🎉Totally Love your video! 💥💯
Great products! ❤
They look great Sam!
Just be careful with those heat presses. There are a number of people (in the UK especially) that have had Vevor heat presses set on fire. I’d recommend not leaving them plugged into power when you’re not around.
Thanks for the heads up! I'll be sure to keep them disconnected when not in use.
I don't have a vevor press but love the press I do have. Bought it when I was given an 80 shirt order a few years ago. Best investment for that sort of thing. I also use it to re-press cheap shirts from the bargain stores or most online stores. Shirts seem to last longer when I do that.
Thanks Sam! Looks great!
Glad you like it!
great video! now I have to buy one thanks hahaha
👍😃Danke für das Video.
Great video! I have been buying a ton of things from Vevor. Upcoming videos on my channel of those things.
💖💖👍👍💖💖Very cool
Good video.
Thanks!
What was the material used for the Samcraft patch on the hat you were wearing for most of the video? It looked thinner and, in my opinion, was more attractive than the thicker leather patches. Thanks! Great video!
For a big guy, your pretty KOOL with structured information….Humm I wonder what your background is?
Some videos / reviews I've seen on other hat presses mentioned that there is often a line of singed / burnt fabric the three top of the hat along where the top plate would end. Have you noticed that with this press? Or does it seem to come out clean.
Awesome addition laser town is definitely getting too small.
It absolutely is! I have been planning on changes and will begin them soon I hope... going to build a new workshop myself and connect it to this one. :)
Does the Hat Press heat from both sides or just the top? I want to create patches, but have been told the press needs to heat from both sides to ensure the longevity of the patch staying on. But I don't want to spend $2500 on a press! Your thoughts would be appreciated.
And free for you
I’m looking into getting a laser. I am only interested in cutting boxes. Is a 10w good enough for 1/4 material? Solid wood or birch ply. Or should I just save and get a 20w. Thanks. Great videos.
Do you mean 1/4 inch thick plywood? If so, you will need at least a 40w diode or even better a 50w+ CO2 laser for the birch plywood. It's not very easy to cut.
Sam what was that you sprayed on the leatherette patch to clean it , thanks
It's a cleaner called LA Totally Awesome. It's very popular for use in cleaning such items & very cheap.
Hi Sam, Where do you get the 6 pack beverage tote?
These came from Hobby Lobby
What’s the price range of the leather sheets? The website won’t show me without making an account.
With JDS you will need a business/tax ID
Let me play devils advocate. But Sam, what makes you different then the 100,000 Tee shirt shops/logo company/ guy at every swap meet in North America? Don't get me wrong, this is cool but can you pull in a decent monthly income and where does it stop. You could end up with a lot of expensive equipment sitting in the corner collecting dust because so many others are already doing it. Its not like you are getting in on the ground floor.
I know this sounds like a negative nellie but I've held off on getting a laser engraver because so many people are doing it. Theres even a guy that goes to the flea market every Sunday with his laptop and engraver and does custom work while you shop around for fleas.
If you see yourself as one in a crowd, that's all you'll ever be. 95% of success in business is in your mindset.
@@Samcraftcom good advice.
Sam, where are you getting your leatherette material? Will the gold engraving come out with a diode laser?
These are all from JDS Industries. They work for diode lasers, too. :)
@@Samcraftcom thank you, sir.
What s the story on Vevor ?
Why do you not use the parchment paper on the hats?
I was supposed to. There was a text overlay on the video saying that I messed up by not putting it on them. :)
@@Samcraftcom, Some how I missed that overlay, sorry.
Does this mean that I can send you.a logo and you can press it onto a hat?
It sure does! :)
AD? Mark it better!
