I cut a small rectangle off a mousemat about 1cm wide by 7cm long, then stick this along the case where the bend is, then i place the whole thing on a mousemat and press, the small bit of mousemat helps push the paper in to the bend.

interesting! I did try one of them but ruined the insert coz this bend. I used hell loads of pressure but still not enough to get decent print. Do you print them transfer paper up? or up side down?

thanks

Hi Paul

I place the paper loosley on to the metal insert and tape at other end to the bend bit, then tape the small bit of mousemat to the paper on the bend, then place insert side up on a mousemat then place in press and use a firm but not heavey pressure, never had a failed one yet works every time. Just can't get enough of them in stock got new batch yesterday and they've gone. I don't see why every is going mad for them.

Also got the rubber iphone cases from listawood they are excellent quality and even have a little a tab bit on the peel off backing to make it easier to peel off to place insert on.

P.S. if you use to much pressure on insert for galaxy s2 case wait till it's cool and place it on a unprinted on and bend back to shape gently

I wasn't aware that rubber cases were available, sounds interesting.

I just used a full mousemat an placed the shaped metal onto that. Like all metal it's print surface face down. Always printed well that way....... as for the cases, srill crack after a small amount of use.... less than 1 day.

Yeah i never knew about them either, they are really good and great quality.

There's an iPad case available as well which I'm surprised no supplier has tried yet.

I've got some of the Ipad cases from coralgraph, they have a rubber type feel to them. quality is great.

Hadn't even thought of checking CG. I had just placed an order for 200 plus a load of sample stuff from China for these but i can do a quick trial now. Are they rubber like the rubber phone cases or plastic like the phone case?

There plastic cases but have a rubber feel if you run your finger over it if you get what i mean haha, the Iphone cases from listawood are actually rubber as they are flexible it's just the part the insert stick to that is solid.

Where you getting your stuff from china?
