security802 686 Posted October 4, 2015 So I just ordered a new mug press, it is pneumatic and automatic open and close. Looked interesting and for $100 I took a gamble. Should be here by the 13th so will post a pic and how it works when I get it 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am getting more athritis in my hands and elbow and when I have 40 mugs to make it is getting painful, Glad the wife has gotten into weeding for me lately.

MadHatterGraphix 1,258 Posted October 7, 2015 Why do I feel as though your going to come on here saying how it cracks the mugs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
security802 686 Posted October 7, 2015 Why do I feel as though your going to come on here saying how it cracks the mugs? Fully adjustable for pressure, it really appears pretty cool set up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OWJones 1,981 Posted October 8, 2015 Is it just me, or does that look like something a new Terminator should step out of? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaybyrd 3,770 Posted October 8, 2015 Already trying to figure out if I could reconfigure it sideways so the mugs slide through like my other press. Looks cool though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadHatterGraphix 1,258 Posted October 8, 2015 I heard a crack lol. Just Kidding. Cant wait to hear first hand experience on this machine. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OWJones 1,981 Posted October 10, 2015 OK, how did they do the angled mug (the 3rd one stacked on top of two straight-sided mugs) shown in the video? Are there multiple inserts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KYSIGN 233 Posted October 10, 2015 My guess is they didn't make those mugs using that press. They kept cutting the video at key points. I could stick the mug handle in my toaster and then reveal a perfectly sublimated mug. It's like magic. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

security802 686 Posted October 12, 2015 ok when you get home pictures of the new press promise? lol Well, as soon as I find some counter space to take a pcture. First mug a sucess no breakage and not bad for a full bleed. Top and bottom good still fade at handles. Pic in the next few Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted October 12, 2015 dang - nicest edges i ever saw on a mug press 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Top and bottom good still fade at handles. Pic in the next few The pics look good, I believe you will always get fade at the handles since the handle is out of the press and no heat is getting to it. Not bad though a lot better than the basic heat press. What are you using for the air supply? and how much pressure? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is a self contained unit, can add a airbrush compressor to it if and when the on board goes bad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
