I just got mine today and it worked great however the settings are a bit confusing but I'm just as happy 😁. I been watching your videos nonstop and enjoy every one!
Thank you for your video, I have a different press than the ones in the video but this really helped me out. I did realize I didn't have any parchment paper & had to use copy paper but my first cup came out great!
I recently got a tumbler press and love it so far! But I’m still watching every video I can find, and really appreciate yours!! Very clear and helpful - thanks!
@@deborahknapp5524 great question - I can’t answer because I’ve actually forgotten. I went back and looked at some videos I made about it, and I wouldn’t even list the company name because their customer service was awful.

After spending a collective 20 something hours searching for a 30 oz mug press you have FINALLY sealed my decision!!! TY for the great tutorial and supply list. hopefully I will be as successful as you were :)
I just purchased this tumbler press. I have one I purchased in China and it came with 0 directions, and can not get it to work. 🙏 This one will work for me too. I will let you know how it goes.❤️ Thank you so much for your videos I believe I will soon be able to do successfully because of your guidance.
I purchased a variation of this tumbler press in April and I absolutely love it! Ir is super easy to set and it does a fantastic job of sublimating. Now if it would just anticipate user errors before the occur! Thank you for all your awesome videos.
Love your videos. Very thorough and love the technical details you provide. I just purchased a similar mug press from Heat Press Nation. It comes with different attachments for various size mugs and tumblers. There is even an attachment for a shot glass.
Finally got my hands on the PYD Life tumbler Press from your link. They had 2 versions so I chose the V3 which is the updated version of the one you showcased in this video. I couldn't be happier and it printer a sublimation mug perfectly the first time out following all of your directions. Now onto tumblers. Thank you so much for this video and for encouraging us to try this. I had already sent another brand back to the supplier as I had wasted so many blanks so I am a very happy PYD Life customer!!
@@lauracooper4877 I have not had any heating issues with 2 mugs at a time or my tumblers. I do make a half turn after pressing and then press again with the tumblers just like Angie did on her video. They all come put perfectly. Sorry you are having issues. Very frustrating as I had to return another tumbler press from another company because of this kind of issue.
@@lisayoung3737 not yet unfortunately, but I also haven't had time to really play with it. I'm really only having issues with the 30 Oz, which are longer. Recently i read in the pyd life manual that due to how the heating element is inside, the last 1/2 inch or so on left and right (can't remember the exact measurement) doesn't get as hot, so I figure I probably need to do more rotations and press each end longer. Hope that makes sense!
I´ve been looking for that or a similar tumbler press here in Germany but unfortunately it´s impossible to get one with (at least within the EU) about the size of the described one on the video. Therefore I ordered as an alternativ machine the VEVOR 6800 from GB (which isn´t EU either) with is completely closed and can sublimate tumblers up to 28 cm (11") height and almost 10 cm in diameter (almost 4 inch). The only disadvantage I realized so far is the fact that You cannot sublimate any cans oder tumblers or mugs with any plastic parts attached, ´cause it goes completely into the machine with all parts heated up to the desired temperature.
Hi Angie, just received my Ecotank printer after 2 years of watching your videos!!! Now I'm looking for a mug/tumbler press. Can you recommend a good one that won't break my bank?? I'm wanting to start a small business but moving very slow, I want to make one time purchases and not panic. Your videos have given me the courage to take the leap!! TIA for any help you can offer.
hi, I just ordered this machine I get it tomorrow. Have you ever used a laser engraver you should try one out you are very creative I am sure you would make cool things with it.
And do not put a single mug in the middle. It will not get enough pressure to sublimate correctly. If anything have a spare mug and put it on the other side if you have just one mug. This worked for me.
I just bought this press. I'm having major issues getting my tops to look good. I keep getting white spots with no ink. After watching your video, I don't think I'm using enough pressure. I'm going to tighten the pressure and make a tumbler tomorrow. Hopefully that fixes my issue.
I adjusted the pressure and that did not help. I'm returning the press and sticking with my convention oven. My oven gives me perfect tops and bottoms.
There are some tumbler presses that come with coils for tapered items but they would be very specific. I find it easier to just do that type of thing in my oven and not try to buy more accessories for the press.
Do you prefer the tumbler press, mug press or convection oven? I am trying to decide if buying a sublimation oven is better than the mu r tumbler press.
hi I know I asked before about heat temp the lady I bought my tumblers from said she does 315 another lady asked told me 400 I did the 400 came out a little too speckled but good so I see you do 356 what blanks company do you use I know you said the temp goes by the blank manufacturer please help sorry to be a pain also I like how in your vid you don't wrap the top just tape for security awesome
All of a sudden my pyd life press is ghosting at the tops. I don't get it. Nothing is different. Preparing and pressing same way. I'm frustrated bc they were coming out perfectly before. It's really more on one side than the other.
I just purchased my tumbler press and when I press my tumbler. The first 2 tumblers I had to much pressure and I bent the tumblers LOL! I wish I would of saw this video before. Very informative! The paper also stuck to the tumbler and I had to use water to wash it off. I press at 365 for 70 seconds. I have the HPNation signature tumbler press that is there recommendations for pressing tumblers. Can you please tell me why my Paper is sticking and pulling off the white sublimation off the cup. HELP I want to be successful craft! 🤦♀😭😭😭
Thank you so much for your video. I have an Elite Tumbler Heat Press, but I think it would be the same. Can we use Cricut Infusible Ink Transfer Sheet? My first items will be the skinny 12 oz wine tumblers.
Halloween design was from Creative Fabrica I think. I did print it on my sublimation printer. You will not be able to print large enough from Cricut Design Space for a tumbler like that however.
Hi, PYD Life has 2 different mug presses. The one you're demonstrating is the V2.0. There's also a V3.0. Is there a difference besides the price? Thank you
Angie, HELP!!! I’m having a terrible time sublimating tumblers. I started slow with an EP printer, A-sub paper, Hippoo ink & an oven & had some success. I ordered a case of tumblers from Craft Haven & the results weren’t as good in the oven. I want to do this regularly so I invested in a tumbler press. I’m using the same printer, ink & paper, wrapping the tumblers as tightly as I can & the results are horrible. Craft Haven recommended 360-375 for 60 seconds & I have the pressure set pretty tightly. I’ve tried varying temps within the range that they suggested, but the print on the dark blue logos I’m doing come out looking like someone took sandpaper to them. I’m running out of tumblers AND patience, & my friend really needs these tumblers. What should I do?
My man got me a tumbler press but I'm trying to figure out if I can do mugs that go small on bottom and big on top, or shot glasses without a conical. Do you know if there is a trick, it looks like yours.
Do you need to do anything to the tumblers after your done? Like coat them with anything or are they just good to go after pressing, and ok to wash and not destroy the project. New and watching videos before I start.
hello Angie I am trying to find a tumbler press that has a 1.5 oz shot glass attachment does this perss have that? or do you know of one that you can recommend
I am having tape impressions, that is going through my A-sub 125g paper. I'm not sure what might be causing this. I am using Tumbler Press PYD. I have used PYD tape, yellow tape and the cricut tape. I'v used the range of 350ºF- 360º 50-65sec/flip 50-60sec again.I have tried light and medium press. I don't even have a seam showing just the darn tape line that is going through the sublimation paper. What might be causing tape impressions, any suggestions? :|
Question. We are using the same pyd press. 350-50-50 and keep getting a pinkish result on all of our tumblers. Some have said either to hot or to long. Using A-sub ink and paper.
My tumblers are showing tape lines using this press. (Never had them when I used an oven) Any thoughts?? I've tried tightening the press and loosening it without improvement.
I need help. I have the pyd tumbler press. It worked perfect for my first mug. The second one was fine on the top half and the black was faded and brown on the bottom half. The third one was all faded brown instead of being black. I’ve tried many variations and they are still coming out faded. I’m using the recommended settings of 120 seconds at 356. I tried more time. And then I tried less heat at 300. Still the same results. Any idea?
Love the video , I went through it a few times . When I get to the end to set temp it goes to 5P. The out does not light up. Do you have any idea what I may of done wrong. Machine just in today.
Hi. I am new with tumblerpress and never used before. Can you let me know do we Need sublimation printer and print on sublimation paper everytime. If yes, is there a cheaper option
For the rim, I run it all the way up and leave some extra. The bottom is trickier. I like to find a place to stop it so yes there it a white line there. If you don't want that, then you would extend the print and tape down really well.
Do you order your own prints or do you have a printer? I'm interested getting the machine but if I don't have a printer wanted to order the sheets... is that possible?
Great video! I'm barely starting looking into doing this as a business. Quick question: what printer do you use to print these prints for sublimation? I need all the help I can get! TIA
When I was reading the manual it says 400/60 seconds but I notice you did 360/50 seconds and twice. Did you lower to compensate not burning so you can turn it?
I always get my time and temperature from the sublimation blank. The manual just gives you a general idea for all tumblers but to be more specific you will want to check on your blank.

Hi Angie, how is this tumbler press still working for you? How does it hold the heat and have you had any issues at all with it? Thank you! ❤️
Is it correct to say that if you want to sublimate on tapered or rounded drinkware you must use an oven?

These are PYD life blanks.
are you going to show doing the other size tumblers like the 30oz?

Hi, PYD Life has 2 different mug presses. The one you're demonstrating is the V2.0. There's also a V3.0. Is there a difference besides the price? Thank you
They did send me some information and it looks like they did change some things but I have not used the other one.
Can this press be adjusted to cone shaped (wider on the top, skinnier on the bottom) mugs and tumblers?
You would have to get one that would take those types of inserts most likely.
Angie, HELP!!! I’m having a terrible time sublimating tumblers. I started slow with an EP printer, A-sub paper, Hippoo ink & an oven & had some success. I ordered a case of tumblers from Craft Haven & the results weren’t as good in the oven. I want to do this regularly so I invested in a tumbler press. I’m using the same printer, ink & paper, wrapping the tumblers as tightly as I can & the results are horrible. Craft Haven recommended 360-375 for 60 seconds & I have the pressure set pretty tightly. I’ve tried varying temps within the range that they suggested, but the print on the dark blue logos I’m doing come out looking like someone took sandpaper to them. I’m running out of tumblers AND patience, & my friend really needs these tumblers. What should I do?
I think I emailed you as well. I would check with Craft Haven and see if there is an issue with the tumbler.
My man got me a tumbler press but I'm trying to figure out if I can do mugs that go small on bottom and big on top, or shot glasses without a conical. Do you know if there is a trick, it looks like yours.
You would have to get attachments for those that work with the press.
@@AngieHolden ok, thank you. Someone mentioned silicone wraps or heat shrink wrap but I wasn't sure it would work.
Hi ..
I order these one
Do you think I made a good choice
I want to do the tumblers
Mugs and glass
I love mine!
Do you need to do anything to the tumblers after your done? Like coat them with anything or are they just good to go after pressing, and ok to wash and not destroy the project. New and watching videos before I start.
Sublimation is permanent as soon as you press and ready to wash.
hello Angie I am trying to find a tumbler press that has a 1.5 oz shot glass attachment does this perss have that? or do you know of one that you can recommend
PYD Life makes several on their own website that are not on Amazon. Those have other attachments that I don't have for this one.
Ty!! I got one
So my question is should we the circuit mug press or this machine
As she mentioned it would depend on how much money you want to spend and how often you would use it.
It is definitely a personal choice. I don't think there is anything wrong with either answer.
Hello possible to have them on 220 voltage french...
I am not sure.
I am having tape impressions, that is going through my A-sub 125g paper. I'm not sure what might be causing this. I am using Tumbler Press PYD. I have used PYD tape, yellow tape and the cricut tape. I'v used the range of 350ºF- 360º 50-65sec/flip 50-60sec again.I have tried light and medium press. I don't even have a seam showing just the darn tape line that is going through the sublimation paper. What might be causing tape impressions, any suggestions? :|
I have never had this happen. I am wondering where you got your blanks?
Which one is better the all in one tumbler press or the regular tumbler press
I have only used this one.
@@AngieHolden thanks for the reply.
I was wondering if i take the cricut???
The pyd press is sold out :(
Can u recommend a similar one?
Thank you for this video!! I definitely want one!!
Sorry! Hopefully they will restock soon!!
Question. We are using the same pyd press. 350-50-50 and keep getting a pinkish result on all of our tumblers. Some have said either to hot or to long. Using A-sub ink and paper.
350 is probably not hot enough. Check with the instructions for the tumbler you bought.
My tumblers are showing tape lines using this press. (Never had them when I used an oven) Any thoughts?? I've tried tightening the press and loosening it without improvement.
I have NEVER had this issue and have had many people say the same thing. The only thing I can guess is the brand of tumbler and the coating applied.
Do you have a video on the designing sublimation image? I’m struggling in that area.
Try this: th-cam.com/video/TGalh6abV1w/w-d-xo.html&lc=UgzCe-b4XFuoF143T614AaABAg
Can that Halloween tumbler you made be epoxied?
I would say so. I haven't ever epoxied one. It is permanent when the sublimation is complete.
I need help. I have the pyd tumbler press. It worked perfect for my first mug. The second one was fine on the top half and the black was faded and brown on the bottom half. The third one was all faded brown instead of being black. I’ve tried many variations and they are still coming out faded. I’m using the recommended settings of 120 seconds at 356. I tried more time. And then I tried less heat at 300. Still the same results. Any idea?
Sounds like maybe uneven heating or uneven pressure. The brown sounds like maybe you are burning it.
My Next machine yes
Love the video , I went through it a few times . When I get to the end to set temp it goes to 5P. The out does not light up. Do you have any idea what I may of done wrong. Machine just in today.
I am not sure?
Jackie..did you figured that out? I am having the same issue😢 Thanks

I really like this tumbler press I am in Canada and on Amazon its not available can you recommend how and were to purchase one?
Sorry. I am not sure!
Do you have a video for a tumbler press vs the double door oven by Oster. Also have you ever use the water method to cool the tumbler down a little.
I have a video comparing the mug press to an oven: th-cam.com/video/sgH7HzWRi7c/w-d-xo.html and I don't cool my tumblers at all.
How do you not get a missing space/white line around the rim and bottom with a press?
For the rim, I run it all the way up and leave some extra. The bottom is trickier. I like to find a place to stop it so yes there it a white line there. If you don't want that, then you would extend the print and tape down really well.
Have you sublimated in an air fryer/confection oven?
I see you found my video on this!
does it matter if you using a different heat press? or they are the same temp?
Generally the same but you may have to experiment. An oven would be different.
Hello, what weight an brand paper do you use if you don’t mind me asking

Is your protective paper parchment paper.
NO it isn't. Try this: th-cam.com/video/zrERc-9RzGE/w-d-xo.html
Did I miss what the dimensions for the sublimated paper is for the tumblers?
You need to look up a template for the tumbler you purchase.
So do you not have to use proxy or anything to finish it off?
Not with sublimation.
Do you order your own prints or do you have a printer? I'm interested getting the machine but if I don't have a printer wanted to order the sheets... is that possible?

Great video! I'm barely starting looking into doing this as a business. Quick question: what printer do you use to print these prints for sublimation? I need all the help I can get! TIA
I have a converted Epson EcoTank as well as an Epson F170. I have videos on both of them.
This looks like my press but mine is Craft Express. Is this rebranded?
More than likely, yes. There are usually several versions of presses like these with different names on them.
Darlah does your press stink bad?
Angie is there a reason that you need to rotate? If the press fits all the way around the tumbler.
It SORT OF fits all the way around. There is a small gap at the top. I feel like rotating is safe to make sure you get a good print.
When I was reading the manual it says 400/60 seconds but I notice you did 360/50 seconds and twice. Did you lower to compensate not burning so you can turn it?
I always get my time and temperature from the sublimation blank. The manual just gives you a general idea for all tumblers but to be more specific you will want to check on your blank.
Do you know how to calibrate the big press
Can you use shrink wrap instead of paper for protection??..
I think that would just be more expensive? I wouldn't recommend it.
What brand is your tape dispenser? I’m having trouble finding one that fits my heat tape.
I actually just found a new one on Amazon that I am testing!
