I've just changed from the 123 flex to 123 premium flex but I'm having a nightmare. I know I'm stupid but I didn't realise 123 meant 3 seconds. I've been happily pressing for 20 seconds before and my...

Well I have just been using the craft robo cutter to type my text then cut. It's a pain as so limited. I've now got illustrator as was told this was what I needed but still not doing it right. So...
Well, I finally got illustrator cs6 that works with vista. Yes I have an old pc but it works. I'm so frustrated as I have made a great design just using text and different fonts for a local...
hi Paul, yes i did trace it first. i can click on the printer icon and select the robo cutter but it's not doing anything. It must be something I'm missing.
Hi, I know I'm a bit thick but I've got a jpeg that I've had to make into a vector so I can cut it out in vinyl for a hoodie I'm doing. Problem is I have saved it in inkscape as a SVG then I tried...
Pressure now sorted as altered manually and also found out that I'm an idiot. I was trying to cut the vinyl shiny side up haha! Have now successfully done about 12 t shirts. Yay!
I only paid £15 for it. I can't see anything else to do with pressure in the manual or on it. Hopefully the blade will work but if not I think I should get something bigger and newer with lots of...
Oink is the new pink btw
Hiya, the blade holder has three different tops for different thicknesses. Blue, yellow and oink. Pink for thicker. Also where you put the blade in there are two ways to put it in as displayed on...
Finally got it installed, took me two days, then I saw the cable had come loose. Now today I just can't get it to cut out some simple letters. I've put in the paper source as vinyl with adhesive...
I need to start from scratch, sell small but believe in what I'm selling and the quality. I don't like anything so far that I've made over the last two years x
I have wasted so much money so far. I sold my hand me downs gold which was so precious to me to buy my heat press and bits. I just can't fail or I'll never forgive myself. Was a very massive...
Yes they are who I'm going to see. Ringing them tomorrow. I feel like such a failure but will put it down as a lesson learnt. Let me know about the badge machine etc thank you x
Thank you. Yes I Googled it and pressure is good. Tried doing a white t shirt but the transfers are reslly cheap so if course crap result. Need to start from the beginning again and buy quality and...
Yet another obstacle. Just watched a vid on The Magic Touch's site showing I need to press for 30 - 40 seconds at 180 C with a high pressure of 80 psi. Well I have no idea how to even know if it's on...
Thanks Jay.
Yes! Thank you x
Arh.. never thought of them. Thank you
I'm going to buy a badge / pin machine. Anyone have tips of the best place to buy? I've checked out alibama but the shipping cost is ridiculous. Ebay and Amazon look ok for the g series. I'm thinking...
Hi Scotty, well I've been at 180 for 180 secs but it bleeds, 180 for 120 secs, black is brown, 175 and 170 at 100 secs. I preheat machine with an old mug. I heat the bottom of the mug on an electric...
I've been struggling to get blacks black on my mugs. Changed temp 3 times and still brown. Making me wonder if these mugs I've got are the problem. I'd be relieved if it is!
Just when I think I'm on the right track to buy the wow 7.2 paper I suddenly realise I have the crappiest printers ever.. and they are both Epson XP205's.. yes.. inkjet!!
So I need a laser printer...
Got a heating plate and put my 11 oz mug wrap back on and it is much better. Having problems with the grey coming out purple for some reason. I've reduced the size of my print area too which works...
Finally got the 6 oz blanket on and hey presto! Printed perfick! My faith is restored. I'll keep the press for just the small mugs as there's no way I'm tinkering with changing blankets for a while....
I have come to the conclusion that you are all insane haha! As for another blanket I recently bought a 6 0z one to put on but not tried it yet. Just checking out my press again with heating it up...
