If you're ever looked for sublimation supplies on Amazon, you've absolutely come across the PYD Life Tumbler Press, which is exactly what we will focus on in this video. PYD Life provided us with their tumbler press, a variety of PYD Life sublimation blanks, as well as their heat resistant tape and 125G sublimation paper to test out.
Well, color us IMPRESSED with the PYD Tumbler Press. This might be the easiest way to sublimate a tumbler and other straight-sided sublimation cups. We will do another video just on how to sublimate a tumbler in the PYD Life Tumbler Press, but for now, we will focus on unboxing the tumbler press and testing out the machine with the different sublimation blanks.

What settings do you use with your PYD Life press when making ceramic coffee mugs? I am struggling with my blacks turning faded brown.

@JustMightDIY Жыл бұрын

Hey! We always go by what the manufacturer recommends rather than a standard setting. If your blacks are turning brown, that means it's getting overcooked. Check the manufacturer's website for specific time and temps (and if you're already following those, try reducing your time first and then your temperature if it's still happening). Hope this helps!

@sharsplace7243 Жыл бұрын

Great video. I purchased this machine, but I am experiencing extreme smoke and smell. I use it in a well ventilated area, but the smell gives me a headache (w/wearing a mask). Do you experience a bad smell each time you use the machine? 🤷🏽‍♀️

@JustMightDIY Жыл бұрын

We had a smell but mostly only the first few times we used it. While pressing, we only see the minimal vapors that come from sublimation ink. If you're experiencing extreme, then maybe contact them and see about exchanging.

You can, as long as the glass is made to handle being Sublimated. Check out this video. It also has links for sublimation glass kzfaq.info/get/bejne/os6mjc2S3dranYk.html

@JustMightDIY Жыл бұрын

Hey kill Joy, we've not heard of that happening as of yet. Two possible solutions. Contact company and ask for replacement or go to auto parts store, home depot or Amazon and buy some automotive grease and lube it yourself, wearing protective gloves of course. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!

What’s the difference between this one and the pyd life 2 in 1 press ?

@JustMightDIY Жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching, from what we can tell the 2 in 1 comes with 2 interchangeable heating elements. Where this one just came with the standard 1. Happy crafting!

@jenniferpeterson104 Жыл бұрын

I just purchased this press. I have always use a convection oven, but unfortunately it died. I tried the settings it ways in the book and my tumblers are faded. I noticed you used a heat gun. Did your heat gun show the same temp you have it set at?

@JustMightDIY Жыл бұрын

It's was fairly accurate. We never had to play with the heat setting to get ours done. We do let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes once it is up to temp. The thermometer gun was to check for the drop off in temperature at the edge. We would either consider having the testing cup and play with the settings to find something that works or exchange it for one that works better. Hope this helps Thank you for checking us out!

We justl purchased this mug press. We have tried a dozen times using a 15 oz mug with an image that covered most of the mug. The only problem we are having is that the edges next to the handle are not vibrant. Is there a specific distance we need to keep from the handle?

@JustMightDIY Ай бұрын

It's about half an inch from any edge of the heated surface. That's where it temp runs down and doesn't sublimate quite right. Hope this helps!

@madelinescreations7955 7 ай бұрын

I received my press yesterday and used it today to sublimate a 20 oz tumbler. Why all the smoke is it cause it was the first time using or did I set it too high 385F 60 seconds. Any advice would be appreciated.

@JustMightDIY 7 ай бұрын

The first use of these are always with extra aromas but the gasses are part of sublimation. Ours still does the same but it smells a lot better. Please consider well ventilated space
