No - I learned a lot from you young man and have an Adkins on the way before the month is out (Deal Done with xPress - Luke is a very easy person to deal with).

The company I bought the cheap one from disputed my findings, and I had nothing to back myself up (Normally I would make a video of the problem for this reason) so these strips would have been perfick and I would have used them if I had know they existed !

But no, your right - I will be ready to open my business properly (Gear Wise) before Christmas 2013. the ONLY 'Fly in the Ointment' is my software developer but I gave him helpful words today so hopefully I can open my website soon otherwise I will have to pay a bit more and use a software developer in the UK.

I've got an infrared thermometer. Figured why I couldn't get it to work, needs a 9V battery hehe. I've heard they are the dogs, will try it out later. I've still got to understand the different pressures for the press. It's a clam kind. So far it's perfect for my t shirts :rolleyes:

Hi Julia, I've PM'd you.

Pushed the button for my new Adkins Press today, Just waiting for a request to pay

I have just posted the same about the same issue. I was not sure if my model is the same as yours. Could you please have a look at the link. If it is the same I will try the little rest dial and see what happens.

Hi Quinsfan, there is no link with your message. mine has a plastic rectangle cover over the dials. The reset bit has + and minus and a screw to turn either way (minus obviously). Took ages for my press to cool down to where I'd reset it at. Ended up at about 172 so I need to adjust it slightly yet. Hope that helps. Include a link and I'll tell you if it is the same, thanks, Jules

I meant the link in my post on the forum not the post to your question, but here it is anyway http://img.diytrade.com/cdimg/333552/14 ... ith_CE.jpg

Hi Iain, yes it's the same press as mine, although mine is black. Get a screwdriver and slowly turn it to the minus. It is tedius but you'll have to let the press cool down and stabilize to see if you need to adjust it more either way.

Will try it tomorrow morning. Off to my proper job now.

It will definately work Iain. Bit of a shocker that it wasn't set properly to start with though but fixable, Jules
