Omg, my husband bought me a heat press about 2 years ago during covid I was so overwhelmed and didn't know how to start. Your information is os helpful. I am now ready to start projects. Thank you so much
We just bought our first clamshell heat press that came with minimal instructions and were not sure how to use it. After watching this video we are now extremely confident and can't wait to put it to use! Thank you so very much!
This is exactly what I needed, husband bought mine for mother's day and I've been so intimidated, now I feel more informed and way less scared of the thing!😂
Oh and I LOVE how you can scroll through the video and it has headings on the topic you’re talking about so you know exactly where to stop. Sensational!
Just so you know...I am in love with you!! This was beyond thorough and I now have much less trepidation about buying and using my 1st heat press. You are a treasure to the HTV freshman class! ❤️
Omg no way! I think I flunked my freshman phase 3 times! I've had my heatpress over a year and always get information overload when I Google it. So I'm not the only one. I'm stuck at the brands. What's a good ink brand, a good printer, and brand of heat transfer paper to get? It's for mostly cotton shirts. I Google it but again there is so much various ways. I just want brightness and durability I guess.
This is the best video I have found about heat press machines... I wish life would come with a tutorial from her hahahaha, she explains so good and her voice is so nice. Thank you!!!
Thank you so much. I see this is 3 years old, but it appears to be very up to date. I was given a heat press with no instructions or manual, so I am thrilled to learn all this from you. Great job!
You are AMAZING! This was so informative for a beginner. I had no idea how to do the pressure test or to fold the substrate to find the middle seam. Thank you so much!
I am so glad you mentioned that about the table height. I have broken my back and now have long lasting problems from that. I had an easy press because I could lift it without problems. I finally have a permanent place to store a full size heat press. I was a little worried about the difficulty of kicking it on place so I will make sure to try out a lower table.
I am researching different heat presses, I have an easy press but its time to upgrade to something a little more practical for me. Making T Shirts for a hobby went into a small business. I've watched a few videos on different heat presses and this is by far my favorite. I never comment on videos but You got to the point and kept my attention the whole time! Thank you!!
I have a clam shell. My husband found it for me on Amazon and paid $125 for it. My son n law made a cabinet for it to sit on. I have never had a problem with it. I love it!!!
Thank you so much for this. Lot's of good information. Heat press seems so simple, and it is but it helps to know about the pillows, the paper and the pads. I appreciate it.
What a wonderful tutorial! I bought my first 15 x 15 Clamshell Heat Press and needed a tutorial to start using it. Thank you for teaching! I was totally unaware I needed additional tools to ensure my designs come out perfect. Again, thank YOU!!!
good video. I just subscribed. I made teflon heat press pillows for 2 years for a friend of mine in the heat press industry. He retired. The same guy just sold me his heat press (15x15) , a Cameo 3 cutter with Bluetooth, a Cricut Easy Press heat press ( the 12x10 size) i guess you'd call it " hand held" and a bunch of vinyl . I already made a design and applied it to a practice shirt no problem, I'm so excited about this. Lots to learn : )
This is by far the best video I have watched, well explained with the heat press machine. Now I'm just having a headache on which heatpress to choose from
Thank you for all of the information that you provide! Your videos are very informative, well laid out and you present them so well! Please keep teaching us newbies!
I am just starting out with sublimation and heatpress with vinyl. Finding your videos very helpful. Had a SNC since they came out in the UK and done loads with it but now its time to do what I always wanted to do. Late as always compared to others but willing to learn about sublimation and vinly heatpressing. Thank you so much, you have given me loads to think about,
This is great! I just got a heat press for Christmas and didn't really know much about it (other than what it does) so thank you for this tutorial! I'll be sure to order the pillows! Thank you!
Just bought my first swing away heat press after my Cricut easy press needed replacement in only 2-3 months. Not many videos out there on how to use the heat press and the different styles so appreciated your thoroughness, your honesty is great because reality is we do things all differently and it was nice to see the reasons for those pads! LOL Seriously, vendors do such a poor job with the manual/directions as you know. Thanks again!
You are so amazing. I really learned alot watching this detailed video. My brother bought a heat press and started making really cool stuff so I decided to follow suit. My heat press came in a couple of days ago and he has been helping me with what he has learned. I still enjoy watching videos because I still tend to learn things I havent experienced yet or even thought about. I learned ALOT from this. I love your shop, detailed, attitude and your enthusiasm. You really need your own show. Thanks again. Oh and I also enjoyed your sense of humor. Look forward to following you as a new subscriber.

Thanks for the thorough video! I've just started looking for a heat press after having so much trouble getting htv to stick with the easy press and I'm practically laying on the easy press for pressure.
Thank you👍 very nice detail video we love it. At first I thought my machine was broken cuz it would take so long to heat up I've been looking for someone to explain this and you did a great job 👍much success👍 will be enjoying your videos and thank you👍👍👍
Thank you, this was very useful. LOL I wish I had seen this yesterday, as I bought a heat press last night, and now I am wondering if I should have bought a clamshell instead of a swing away...well, live and learn. I will bolt it well to an end table :) Thanks for the tips!
Amazing video! May I ask which Brand of Heat Press you're using in the video? Also, which printer did you use to print the design on the vinyl? Thank you so much for your help! :)
I’m very interested in starting to make t shirts, towels or anything else with a press. This was super informative. One question, what do you use to create the heat transfers?
Hey Terry, mine is from Heat Press Nation. I'll link it here for you. Hope this helps! ---Becky www.heatpressnation.com/products/hpn-15x15-signature-series-heat-press-auto-open
I see that some people attach the Teflon to the top of heat press then some say Teflon us not good for sublimation causes moisture. Can i just use butcher paper or card stock,inside shirt for sublimation or do i have to have a pillow
Thanks for the fast reply! I trust your advice but was just wondering since the manufacturer doesn't mention/recommend it. Sounds like it's very much recommended but not mandatory.
I'm looking for a new heat press. 15x15 is in my budget. Would you get a clam shell (which I currently have but it was used when I bought it and it smokes when pressing and discolors my tshirts) OR would you get the HTVRont auto heat press?
Heat Transfer Vinyl can be cut with a vinyl cutter. You will then want a press, or if it is a smaller design you can use an iron. If you choose to use an iron you will want to make sure there is no water or steam when pressing.
Thank you for all the videos. I've been looking at all the others and didn't learn a damn thang lol. You must been sent by GOD. Now i can stop crying and having a breakdown. Thank you again. Your the best you do awesome work
Hi Haania! That really depends on how often you are going to use it and what your crafting needs are. Sublimation is more of an investment but if you will be crafting often, then it's worth it! - Dawn 🙂
Thank you thank you thank you!!! Your information was soooo helpful!!! I was really struggling trying to decide what heat press to purchase. You answered all of my questions..... and even ones I didnt know I had!! haha!!
Great video. Question: the HTV clear sheet is not supposed to need an additional barrier - ie the teflon paper. I see the value of the paper, but is it really necessary?
I looooooooove your videos! Without you, I would have never learned to use my cameo. And now I know what to do about getting a heat press! Thank you sooooooo much!
Thank you. Do you have a video from start to finish on heat transfers. As in how to make a print? One color or two ect? What type of paper to use and where to purchase? I'd love to do this, however, need to know this information that may seem simple to you. Thank you.

How do you mount your heat press down in order to keep it from tipping?
You're so good at what you're doing. Love your videos.
Thanks for watching! 😊
Are Teflon sheets a must? Can parchment paper be used as an alternative?
Thanks so
Much. I’m finally going to put my heat press to use
Thank you so much. just got my heat press and want to learn as much as I can before I use it.
You're welcome! And how exciting, have fun!! :)

The clam shell machine i bought keeps shutting off. Any pointers on what's going on?
you might need a new fuse
What brand and where can i get the heat press , i want it with a popup and pull out . And thank you for the pointers .
Amazing video! May I ask which Brand of Heat Press you're using in the video? Also, which printer did you use to print the design on the vinyl? Thank you so much for your help! :)
That is heat press national brand
You can find heat presses here: Clam Shell Heat Presses - amzn.to/3hW61wx -Brittany
Great advice here
So the heat press design that you used, where did you print it from?
Very.informative
Thank you
Hi Casey! Thank you for watching 😊

Hello, I love watching your videos Becky! Thanks for all the information.
I'm looking to buy a clam shell heat press. I was wondering what make and model yours is in this video. The video was very informative. Thank you.

I recently purchased a used clamshell press, this was all very helpful, thank you!
You are so welcome!
hey when using my 15x15 for bigger designs such as 16x20 is it okay if a section gets repressed while working on multiple sections
Thanks for the fast reply! I trust your advice but was just wondering since the manufacturer doesn't mention/recommend it. Sounds like it's very much recommended but not mandatory.
We're always happy to help! - Brittany
Wow! I really learned a lot here. Thank you for your research and information.
Glad it was helpful!
where do you get your vinales and can you make your own ? also can you take pics and press them on too? thank you
If you could what is sublimation in detail. I'm new to this and want to understand it more when it comes to heat pressing. Thanks in advance.
Thank you for your help. I’m ready to start using my new heat press.
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching! 😊
My new Heat Press was just delivered and looked a tad intimidating. Thank you for a clear and detailed overview. I feel more comfortable now:)
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching! 😊
Thanks Becky. I’m waiting for delivery of my first heat press. It’s a Geo Knight swing away. I love your clear explanations.
Thank you!
How do you like your geo knight?
Thank you so much for the information you do a great job
Thanks for watching!
I was hoping for some information on how you get the design from a computer and printed? Like what is that you put on the tea-towel?
It will depend what material you are using. You could sublimate it or you could use HTV on the tea towel.
@@DesignBundles thanks. I've done some more research. So do we need several different printers? Or are there printers that do everything?
I'm looking for a new heat press. 15x15 is in my budget. Would you get a clam shell (which I currently have but it was used when I bought it and it smokes when pressing and discolors my tshirts) OR would you get the HTVRont auto heat press?
Hi, what type of printer and ink need to use for heat transfer? As im a totally 💯% beginner.
Heat Transfer Vinyl can be cut with a vinyl cutter. You will then want a press, or if it is a smaller design you can use an iron. If you choose to use an iron you will want to make sure there is no water or steam when pressing.
Thank you for all the videos. I've been looking at all the others and didn't learn a damn thang lol. You must been sent by GOD. Now i can stop crying and having a breakdown. Thank you again. Your the best you do awesome work
Thank you for watching!
hey i'm just curious that is it better to buy sublimation printr than a vinyl
Hi Haania! That really depends on how often you are going to use it and what your crafting needs are. Sublimation is more of an investment but if you will be crafting often, then it's worth it! - Dawn 🙂
Thank you thank you thank you!!! Your information was soooo helpful!!! I was really struggling trying to decide what heat press to purchase. You answered all of my questions..... and even ones I didnt know I had!! haha!!
This was so informative!! Thank you!!
I'm so glad it was helpful! :)
Great video. Question: the HTV clear sheet is not supposed to need an additional barrier - ie the teflon paper. I see the value of the paper, but is it really necessary?
If you feel like you don't need it you don't need to use it. At the end of the day every craft does things a little different
Thank you. This was very helpful. I’m new to all of this and I’m just loving your videos. 💕
I'm so glad! Thank you for watching!
thank you so much i am so excited about getting started all your tips have helped me
