Hey, and welcome! Today’s video is all about sublimation seams on tumblers. We’re gonna talk tips and tricks for seamless seams, as well as how to create an image within a design in order to hide potential seam flaws you may get when subbing a tumbler. There are those that would say you shouldn’t add anything, because by doing so, you’re making the seam stand out, and you should be trying to make it invisible. And to some extent, they would be right. But sometimes you just have to add something to the design to make it work! And that’s exactly what we’re gonna do!
Please check out our Facebook group, groups/55947.... If you enjoy sublimation, just answer a couple of quick questions and join. We’d love to have you!
I hope you enjoy, and if this video helped you, please give it a thumbs up! And also, be sure to subscribe for more upcoming fun and informative videos!
Here are the links to the products I used in this video:
20mm x 33m, 108 feet (larger) heat tape (This is the one I use almost exclusively!): amzn.to/33CHvvZ
13mm x 33m, 108 feet heat tape (This is my backup, and what I sometimes use.): amzn.to/3eh4LBU
10mm x 33m, 108 feet (narrower) heat tape (This is what I used to always use, and recommend if you prefer narrow tape.): amzn.to/3edULJC
Desktop tape dispenser: amzn.to/3qfs2tG
24” metal ruler: amzn.to/3G9371v
Folding utility knife: amzn.to/3fjkUr8
Olaf 12” x 18” self-healing cutting mat: amzn.to/3JbZ0n4
I’m on a MacBook Pro and I’m using Photoshop Elements 2021.
I was never taught Photoshop, I just learned it on my own (before KZfaq!). Now hopefully I can help you create cool files using Photoshop Elements! If you don’t know anything about Photoshop, I assure you, you can learn, even without my videos! (There are a bunch of KZfaq videos that will help!) Just be patient and take baby steps!

Roy, great video. I have a few tips for you, first, because one edge of the design overlaps the other, I think you only need to add the SEAM HIDING image to one side of the image, not both sides, if done correctly having a hard edge line and drop shadow, that is all you need. The second tip has to do with the 24" metal straight edge, sometimes when making a cut the straight edge will slip or move on you, and the cut may be off. So, have several straight edges from 12" all the way up to 58" long, and I use adhesive-backed cork or felt on the backside of the straight edges to grip whatever I place them on so the straight edge does NOT slip (move) when making a cut and ruin the artwork.

Jon, great tips! I often only make the seam on one side, but if I have a drop shadow that’s pronounced and I want that look on each side, the only way to have that shadow on both sides of the final seam is to flip it and put a seam (with the shadow) on both sides. Yes, part of one of the sides will be cut off, but the shadow will remain. And I have had the ruler slip a couple of times, so I’ve learned to hold it down well when I cut. I also try to only slightly push against the ruler. I was leaning against a cork back, partly because I like being able to ever so slightly slide the ruler to exactly where I want it, but it sure would help to keep that thing from sliding around, and that’s a great tip for anyone using a ruler! Thank you!

Hello, boy am i glad to found your video. I started sublimation on 20 ounce tumblers around November for Christmas with convection oven, and let me tell ya out of 25 tumblers i had maybe 5 with good seam. my problem is I do not have a sublimation printer so i buy from other source, So Iam trying again i may buy a tumbler press, I have trouble with getting the seam tight, Maybe I don't have enough strength in my hands to pull tight enough. But here i go again. I did like your video. thanks for the tips

Sandy, thanks so much for watching! Do you have a convection oven? If so, check out my earlier video about subbing from start to finish. It uses a convection oven and shrink wrap. I’ve found that if I wrap the paper really flat and tape the seam really good, I have less trouble with seams using a press, so I do recommend them. BUT, please don’t get a knockoff from Amazon or eBay. You run the risk of getting one that doesn’t work. I recommend Heat Press Nation or Pro World. They’re more expensive, but you get a good product with a company that backs their product up. There are other good ones, but I just don’t know which ones. Join our Facebook group and ask. I know a few folks in the group have different presses they like. Thanks again for watching!

Awesome idea!! Can you do this in other programs like Inkscape? How do you get good seams for bigger tumblers that you print and have to seam together because of a printer that can’t to do bigger than 8.5x11?
@industrialfringe953
@industrialfringe953 Жыл бұрын
I’m sure you can do this in Inkscape, although I’ve not tried it. Any program that will give you the option of creating a rectangle of the size you choose and the ability to color it in should work. I know with Photoshop Elements, I’m able to use the shadow and bevel tools to give it a great look. I haven’t tried to splice prints together to make a larger print…yet! When I do, I’ll be sure to make it into a video! Thanks for watching!

Hi Roy I have a question on the Adobe photoshop elements is that something I can purchase a one time fee or you need to pay monthly.
@industrialfringe953
@industrialfringe953 2 жыл бұрын
Hey, yes, while Photoshop CC (the full version of Photoshop) is a monthly fee, Photoshop Elements is a one time cost. It’s $99 (and they usually have a sale for $69 toward the end of the year). The only thing I can’t do in Photoshop Elements is taper a design or skew objects, and I Rafaela have a need to do that. Thanks for watching!

Hello what are your temperatures and times for the dark colors?
@industrialfringe953
@industrialfringe953 Жыл бұрын
Hey, Vanessa, my time and temp is the same for all colors. In an oven, I do 365 degrees for 4-1/2 minutes. In a press, I do 365 degrees, press for 50 seconds, rotate 180 degrees, press another 50 seconds, rotate 90 degrees, press for 20-25 seconds, rotate 180 degrees and press for a final 20-25 seconds. Check this video out for an oven kzfaq.info/get/bejne/m6-Ahpyirqnem3U.html and this video for a press. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r7Whq6t2v820p58.html Thanks for watching!

How much of an overlap do you do?

I try for 1/8” overlap, but sometimes it’s closer to 1/4”.

Do you overlap or bring together

@industrialfringe953 Жыл бұрын
I bring together, then overlap! In all seriousness, I shoot for between 1/16” - 1/8” of image overlap, then I have an additional 1/16” - 1/8” white paper overlap. Thanks for watching!
