All this is required?
All of the first 4?
@@laceypurdue5526 what you need depends on what you’re planning on making
Thanks for the informative video. What if you have odd shaped tumblers. I have some tapered travel mugs which are not the standard 17oz mug size for the standard heat press attachment?
Hi Allison, I would like to know if you can do the sublimation sippy cups and the fat tumblers with the trans pro
Agree 100%! Tried the convection oven first, but my main issue was consistent heating. I have a PYD life tumbler press arriving today! :)
yay!!
I got mine last week after my Cricut mugpress died!! I’m very happy!!
I got mine a month ago & I love it! I have the PYD & they come out perfect every time! I also do shrink wrap
I love watching your videos. You always have a smile on your face and in your voice. I agree with using a tumbler press. It's so easy and takes so much less time than an oven. I saw so many posts of people having trouble using an oven that I went straight for a press.
Confection oven 385* degrees 5 mins and I dont turn the tumblers Perfection everytime Can do 10 tumblers or more at a time. Easy when you have 20 or more tumblers. Why fiddle with a press? Cheers. Happy Easter🐇🌷
@@debbiesmith6703 no fiddling, let it heat up, press, and done in less than 2 minutes.
Thank you!!! I have sooooo many messed up tumblers from using an oven, I wish I went straight to a press!!
@@AlisonCrafts What about a sublimatiooven made specifically for sublimation like the PYD oven?
Actually its easier using a airfryer, better than a convection oven
I ordered a press and waiting for it to come in. I ran across your video. On your press do you have to rotate the tumbler? Or does it press it all at once. I’ve been watching many videos to get familiar with mine. Many people say they rotate to get a full sub on their tumbler. It made me curious, does your do a full press.
I’ve switched to a press and no matter what I do I get white around the edges. :( any tips?
I love craft haven! ❤
She's the best!!
I'm returning my tumbler press..
I can't get good tops no matter how well I tape them. I've tried super tight pressure, even looser pressure. Nothing I've tried gives me tops with white spots. However, my tumblers come out perfect almost every single time in convention oven.
I don’t even tape my tips and bottoms anymore. Only the seam!
Convection oven all the way for me. I started off with the press and hated it. You don’t need shrink wrap for the oven, all i use is heat resistant tape to secure my image.
What issues did you have with the press? We are the opposite. We started with an over and it was awful. Now have a schulze mug turbo 15 and it is amazing.
Thanks Alison great video
Thanks for watching!!
I always love your videos. I personally prefer to use a tumbler press myself I just feel like I have more control lol.
Yes! It's just more consistent imo!!
I use an air fryer and it works perfectly for me. I’ve been debating on getting a tumbler press. So far I’m not convinced I need to get one.
It’s definitely more consistent and a lot faster but definitely a personal choice!
Do you flip half way in the air fryer?
@@KeithDonegan no I don’t
What are your settings for the air fryer?
@@ladyw9643365 for 6 minutes. I use two different air fryers and that same setting works on both.
For me.. I wanted to do different sizes and products. My press won’t do larger mugs, and tumblers. Buying multiple presses adds up and requires a good amount of designated storage and work workspace. And- one at a time. I think ultimately, the press is a better way to go but I now have both, and a heat press for shirts and flat objects.
Where did you get your tape dispenser?
The way you prepare tumbler for your press is all I do for convection oven and I can do 4 at a time.
Me too Cheers oven all the way. Why waste money on a useless press toooo much time when your making 20 or more tumblers have a great weekend🌷btw. My convention oven works perfect 385*degrees for EXACTLY 5 mins and we don't even turn the tumbler. Perfection everytime! Cheers Ontario Canada
I'm glad it works for you that way. It absolutely did not for me and for the vast majority of people I have spoken with
@@AlisonCrafts you need to turn the blower on or off. I forgot which. Lol
@@HeavenLeeMadeOnEtsy Hi yes the blower/ turbo is on for even heat. Cheers✌️from Ontario Cheers
@@debbiesmith6703 Which oven do you use?
What about for mugs with handles?
I wish you would have shown the final result comparison of your two methods
I have about 25 messed up tumblers from my oven days I'd be happy to share lol
When you did the mug press you said 60 seconds and it's done... but did you flip it it looks exposed on the very top? And also what temp did you use. 🙏
It depends on the image. If it’s a single image in the middle of the cup you don’t have to move it! I do 385 for 70 seconds
Please can you tell me if it’s ok to put a final coat of crystalac over a tumbler that has epoxy? I made some pens and want to put a decal on them but I’m not using epoxy anymore. Do I need to sand them or would the epoxy repel off the epoxy?
yes it's fine as long as your epoxy is fully cured! Id give it a light scuff sand with 400 grit sand paper
When you use your silicone bands it didn't leave a obvious darker ink transfer where the band was placed? I did it once and was to scared to try again
I never had that issue but I didn’t last long with that method before I got my presss!
Is any brand okay to use or do you prefer a certain tumbler press?
I love mine from pro world!! shrsl.com/3gvbp
What masking tape did you use in the beginning for the convection oven method? I don’t see it in your lists of supplies
just blue painters tape from the hardware store :)
@@AlisonCrafts thank you!
I wish I know this before I buy a oven. Because my tumblers are coming out fade.
Where do you get the bands to go around the tumbler
amzn.to/3pOpeHy
so you dont have to turn it and heat it again in the mug press to get a good 360 subblimation?
It depends on the design. A single image no. Full wrap yes
The ovens take so much longer. Taping is very important. I love using my tumbler press. It presses up to 30 ounces. I rarely use my convection oven. Maybe I’ll try to sublimate a bowl or something in the oven. 😮
I use epson presentation paper matte (not premium). less expensive, thinner, so its easier to line up image on mug/tumbler
Great video! 60 secs for what temp ? Tia
365 ❤️
What toaster oven did you use?
I don't know the exact model jsut a standard countertop convection oven like this one: amzn.to/3is9nuG
What size of tumbler will that do?
20 or 30 oz
Please give me a link to your tape Dispenser
amzn.to/3z8xfIZ
I just wonder if it’s cheaper to make them or have someone else do it ?
Well it depends on what you plan to do. The equipment and supplies are definitely an investment if you’re literally looking to just get one cup
Great video and information I was contemplating a convection oven as opposed to using cricut mug press since I have to spin and turn the mug (I am a crafter not a seller) if I were to sell I would definitely get the bigger press.
If you want to make tumblers the cricut mug press isn’t the way to go. It’s definitely an investment for a crafter but it’s much more consistent for me!
do u do 30 sec and rotate 30 sec
Yep!
I’m looking for what printer to do 😓
I have the sg1000 from ProWorld! shrsl.com/3roeg
Does the oven smoke ? And smell
If you cook things too long, yes it can smoke and smell!
@@AlisonCrafts ty. What about the heat press. Does that also smoke ?
It’s so odd to me that people would use a confection oven as opposed to an actual sublimation oven designed specifically to make tumblers and many other items. Of course there will be issues using a confection oven, it’s not designed for sublimation.
I keep getting a white line in my designs
Are they on the paper when you print? Likely need a nozzle cleaning on your printer in the settings on your printer!
Well if you do 4 tumblers in the oven at one time then it evens out. Some people do 8
Did you show the difference between the two tumblers after? I'm really interested to see if not, if you did I'm sorry I had kids hanging off me while watching.
I didn't do a side by side but I can tell you that WHEN I got the oven to work - it looked fine. But I had SO MANY that didn't turn out in the process - i wasted so many tumblers :(
@@AlisonCrafts thanks for the reply! I'm currently saving for a press but I have an old, unused toaster oven I was going to use.
Woah!!! What happened to turning the tumbler in the mug/tumbler press?? Pretty important step you skipped!! 😳
I have a tutorial that does through the detailed steps of how to make a sublimation tumbler here: th-cam.com/video/jUfTdmJeX78/w-d-xo.html
Sublimation press dont do slant subtraits well
Painters tape not masking tape. Two different tapes
Airfryers are way better than mug press and convection
