I bought this press

15 x15 Most common starter size fits most shirt designs...

Plus it dies three sizes three sizes of mugs / Tumblers Hats Towels and shirts hoodies and such... oh and plates two sizes...

The press also features auto raise on end of timer feature so you dont over press the heat...

You press the garment then center all pretty most put a fold crease in center vertically...

Then you place decal then use a Teflon type of paper above the image after centered...

Then you press set time and heat range typically the higher the range the better the transfer and then remove backing and do another press for about 7-8 seconds to seal the water ink into the fabric... for longevity of wash cycles...

I also purchased an additional Bottom Silicone pad

Two additional Heat press and Bottom pad covers

I wish image zoom was working again... LOL

Maybe after all the imaging stuff for merchandise...

With this machine verses the standard entry machine the devices sold separately all come together and they are simple plug and play verses removing the heat iron from press and installing the hat press or Tumbles for example for plates still applies... I have no idea what the blue thing is for Ill find out once the press arrives...

Even if I never even clear enough for the press to be covered It will be the next logical step and Ill have a lot of hats shirts and stuff for myself if nothing else so no huge expectations from any of this other than at least Ill have it for personal use...

Basically 500 plus accessories so toss in another 150

over a 250 dollar machine and accessories would be the same price...

I have a few women who would like some lightweight shirts and a guy or two...

and then some standard thickness interested more where I will also be...

Hats Ill do two versions press or embroidered Im not buying that machine at 3,000 I can buy a lot of shirts and hats already made up and I dont have to learn that crap...

For the press if I buy a laser jet printer for DTF film I can keep up with head and nozzles and print my own decals sets for now Ill order them online...

And again you can get a machine for 300-3000 Id try to find one around the 1200 mark probably if I make it to that level for now the DTFs are pretty cheap to order

Also note PNG files well here look...

The best format for Direct to Film (DTF) printer images is the PNG file. PNG files support transparent backgrounds. This keeps your final design from having an ugly box printed around it on a t-shirt. You can also use vector files like SVG or AI if you have them.

Vector files can be scaled indefinitely and do not pixelate...

I generally send very large png files, they are required resolution for printing. Once you confirm you are happy with specific designs ill upload them in full reolution in the relevant threads. At the moment im just waiting for yaya or nay on the ones you like.I'm uploading some today so you can decide
