Just in from the workshop 180/180 seems to be just fine but having said that I would'nt really trust the press to be totally accurate as far as temp is concerned, the wife bought me the printer, mugs and paper so I really feel it's my duty to point out to her that in buying me quality gear I need a quality press to go with it, I'm now feeling hard done by, just wait until the woman gets in from a 12 hour night shift, she'll hear me, and if you believe that.......

My other half takes this approach occasionally, and he has been known to visit the local A&E occasionally too Schizowife by name ...........................!!

My wife is a nurse so she is able to beat me up and then treat my wounds....with salt

I spoke to my wife about a mug press she said "we'll see" so yipeeeeeeeeeee

Very true, Sir. I'm always a wee bit concerned of overcooking on the Sublijet-R inks. If your temperature display is accurate, my time/temp settings should be bang on.

I'll try your settings on Monday Scotty - my blacks have always been good at 160/160 but its worth a try, i'll let you know my findings but you could be right with the temp gauge being out.

Cheers John

Finally got the mug press working well, just as well the wife suggested that I sell one of my guitars to fund another one, what a cheek rather spend a few quid on me she would have me in guitar poverty
