MadHatterGraphix 1,258 Posted April 2, 2014 Very cool buddy I like it however it might be the angle of the picture but is the image slanted? I think its the angle of the pictures however I like the design a lot. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted April 2, 2014 remember do NOT submerge them in water when done- air cool only or it will crack the glaze - everyone changed that tune about 3 years ago . . . if doing a large number with several wraps use a fan to cool them faster Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
security802 686 Posted April 2, 2014 remember do NOT submerge them in water when done- air cool only or it will crack the glaze - everyone changed that tune about 3 years ago . . . if doing a large number with several wraps use a fan to cool them faster I was gonna just ask that' cause the directions for the mugs say put in room temp water. However everything I saw no one did, so here it air cools. Thanks dakotagrafx 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MadHatterGraphix 1,258 Posted April 2, 2014 EL I meant nothing bout it, it did a great job for your first mug I remember mine like it was 3 yrs ago oh wait it was 3 yrs ago sill proud of it too. It takes practice to get it straight. I have issues with being crooked too so don't feel bad.

xpaperman 719 Posted April 2, 2014 I remember my first attempt at dye sub.... it was a mug.... the whole time it was in the oven I was terrified it was not gonna work right...... the anticipation of that first dye sub item..... Then, you take the wrap off...... slowly peel back the paper...... WHOLLY CRAP?!?! IT WORKED? IT REALLY DOES WORK! Fun stuff and nice mug! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
security802 686 Posted April 2, 2014 LOL I paced in the kitchen for the 15min it said to bake it at, waiting to hear it break or something worse.. I am drinking coffee out of it as I type feeling kinda cool with "MY" mug Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slice&dice 2,450 Posted April 2, 2014 https://www.google.com/#q=speciality+gifts That creates more questions than it answers. The first few results are a few companies using the "speciality" spelling, while the remainder of the links are "Specialty" which to me seems right. This requires more research, but I would be inclined to stick with SPECIALTY (no i). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
