[Milly64]

Hi there every one i hope this message gets out its my first post , hello..

can you help me ?

Dose anyone know the best place to buy 11oz mug matts for my mug machine

its the type with the pull down clamp and 4 screws that hold the matt in place

the ones i keep getting only seem to last about 3 months.

or is there a reomendation for a good well known brand of press thats tryed and tested

thank a lot .... Paul

Hi Paul

Presumably you mean mug blankets. If this is the case it is strongly recommended to purchase them from the same place you purchased the machine from. This is because there is no set standard on how these are wired and if you purchase from a different supplier your machine could go bang!

There are quite a few recommended mug press machines and it really depends on your budget. A good search of this forum will show up Adkins, TMT, Listawood and BMS to name a few.

Ditto what Social said - Id assumed they'd all be the same, got replacement blanket, plugged it in and nothing happened. Press survived, but no idea about the blanket. One day I may get round to resoldering the connector so it's the same as the press wiring.

I was also wondering about wiring as I had intended to find a new element for my press when it goes rather than trying to find the whole thing, as soon as something here blows I will have it apart for investigation.

Paul, welcome to the forum by the way - I am also new to this and learning a lot, from here and of course Trial and Error

yep the one i ordered from a company despite having the same pin numbers does not work on the press i have, it was a gamble as to whether it would of fitted, and this one certainly does not

I did try asking the company I bought the replacement blanket from as to what the wiring pin out was for the blanket but got no response.

Mine last about 3000 mugs minimum but I have had some that have lasted at least double that.
