Re: ET-14000 transportation lock question

<t>Yep, mine is same. And if you check youtube, it's by design. At first it looks kind of broken (really loose), and then it requires quite a force to switch.<br/>
<br/>
- About the lock. Mine seems quite okay. But as you say - both printer and tank sits on the table. It's not that printer is ...

Re: Beginner heat press

<t>If you're a good mechanic, can fix broken parts or replace the bad quality ones, it's a great purchase. Otherwise, I would count with trouble. It may break, temperatures and pressure wont be that precise... On the other side, it's not that big of a deal. It's just a huge iron. Maybe it's viable ...

Re: Good jigsaw puzzle blanks?

Hey,
I was thinking about starting a little custom jigsaw puzzle project. There are not many companies offering it out cheap. That may be worth of a try using sublimation.

But are there any decent blanks for that? That would, well... work without too many defects?

Re: Why some polyesters works while others dont?

Thank you for feedback.

I dont think either pressure or dry-time could cause so much of a difference. But I still have some blanks left, so I will experiment further more with pressure and let you know if it helped. It's a good thing to cosider, yes.

Re: Why some polyesters works while others dont?

<t>[MENTION=1209]pisquee[/MENTION] That would made sense. I was thinking about the coating as well. It is really weird. I went to a fabric-shop and bought everything polyester they had. Not a single problem! Sure, materials are different, feelings vary. But print was quite okay. So I dont get why ...

Re: Why some polyesters works while others dont?

<t>I played a lot with settings during my experiments. Nothing helped. On the picture is the exactly same print, same settings (temp, pressure, time). All of them are some sort of 95% polyester blends. Just for some reason, some of them turned really faded. And dim. (not ICC profile kind of faded ...

Re: Why some polyesters works while others dont?

<t>Hello guys. Im messing with polyester textiles and wonder: Why some of my custom made fabrics, or ever "sublimation blanks" works perfectly. But others dont. <br/>
<br/>
For example: I ordered some socks. The first batch was quite okay. But second one is absolutely unusable (fourth piece on ...

Re: Adkins Auto Clam - Any one use it?

I know this one is old - but I have the exactly same question. Deciding between adkins ez auto clam (cheaper) and hoxtronix maxx. Id rather go with adkins because of its price, but dont know if its any good. Any experiences? Thanks
