Singer Pro9s & Siser Easy Weed

[Stuff4Toys 2]

Just thinking about creating a few T-Shirts and wondering if our Singer Pro9s will work as a heat press?

Has settings for Nylon, Silk, Wool, Cotton, Linen settings like an iron.

Anyone have any ideas what setting above will work best for Siser EasyWeed?

Thanks

Heat presses don't use Moisture. In fact, they usually suggest you pre-heat the t-shirt to pull the moisture out.

If you have $295, I can get you a 15 x 15" heat press with free shipping.

That's a cool price, however I only need a couple of shirts done, hard to justify the expense right now.

This unit works without steam, just wondering which heat setting would be appropriate?

Only concern is the unit does not provide enough pressure for the heat transfer. Are you able to lock down the cover at firm pressure?

If you only need a couple shirts, ask someone to do them for you.

Trust me, you want to use a good heat press, and transfer.

The Singer Pro still might leak some water from the lines.

Has not had water in it for 4 years.  It'll press at 100lbs pressure, should be enough.

What heat setting corresponds to the 300 degrees needed for Sisser Easyweed?

check it with a cooking thermometer but as other have indicated it will not give you the even pressure of a over the center pressure adjustment floating platen heat press.  you might have better luck using your electric kitchen griddle with weight on it

If you start making a few t-shirts, more people will ask you to make more.

I'm sure you can spend $300 and make your return in a few months.

Run an Ad in Craigslist, eBay Classifieds, eBay itself, and you'll get customers. Email all your friends, let your co-workers know, hand out flyers, etc. etc.

Oh yea, let all your Fishing Buddies know. I met a guy in the hospital. He was visiting the person in the bed next to the person I was visiting. He said he belonged to a group of fisherman/woman and the guys that did the shirts and hats are now gone (if you know what I mean), and asked if I would do their shirts and hats.

You can offer a free t-shirt for the biggest catch.
