locknload1 17 Posted December 31, 2010 I got a free HIX hat press a couple of years back, It was a flood find my Dad got in San Antonio and gave to me (http://forum.uscutter.com/index.php/topic,18379.0.html). It was in really really bad shape loaded with old hornet nests and in need of a new handle and partial rewire. It now works great but I still don't use it very often and don't even push hats, HIX sure does build a tough press however... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

239 Design 5 Posted January 1, 2011 Nice to see someone is getting use out of there hat press! They look great, I bought one and so far haven't had one hat come out good? Maybe because I am new to to this but I can't see how I will ever make my money back I just got some eco film and haven't tryed it yet. Can I ask what vinyl you are using?

tattoo.dan 0 Posted January 1, 2011 I got a free HIX hat press a couple of years back, It was a flood find my Dad got in San Antonio and gave to me (http://forum.uscutter.com/index.php/topic,18379.0.html).

It now works great but I still don't use it very often and don't even push hats, HIX sure does build a tough press however... I agree. I found an old Hix 15" heat press in an old camper at my grandmothers house about 5 years ago. Had mouse turds and nests and about a four foot snake skin in it. Dragged it out, cleaned it up and started playin. I now have been a full-time shop for over a year and it is still used in my shop daily. Good presses. Funny how that and a uscutter started it all for me. Life changing stuff. Happy New Year! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
