Thank you. I have been having trouble with seams, also. Thank you for showing me to press on both sides of the overlap. You are a lifesaver

[rampena]

Ok you Sir are a genius....I barley started sublimating tumblers for about 2 weeks using a Mug press. I figured out the ghosting on top on bottom of tumbler and Burning my tumblers😣 but the damn seam was killing me. Makes perfect sense to find the BACK seam and make sure you run your thumb and nail down that Line! Thanks for the Tips...Subscribed😎

[vanillasugar]

Thank you so much for this video… you completely fixed my tapping issue. I followed your way and it got all the colors all the way around 🙌

Can't tell you how many tumblers I messed up, and BAM tried your method and VOILA, they are perfect. THANK

[silvr_stk_artattack]

Thank you for this video - my wife started making these about two weeks ago and has been having so much trouble with the seems - we tried this and it has come out perfect every time - again thank you - great video - keep up the good work

HI Great tips! When videoing, it would be best to have camera/phone horizontal instead of vertical to have a widescreen video! Thanks again for your helpful tips.

[hfletcher]

Thank you for sharing. I didn't think about running my thumb along both seam lines. Can't wait to try this out tonight! Thank you again.

[kimcox]

Thank you so very much for doing this video! I could never quite get it. Thank to you I did! :)

I loved your video and not to mention your office space is nice

[tabathasteele]

You, Sir, are a miracle tumbler worker!

[Nogo]

Another tip for a better looking print is not losing proportion of the image in your graphic desing software. Stretched images do not look good.

[EmpressNatiLocs]

Brilliant!!!🙌🏿🙌🏿 Thanks so much for your wonderful tips!💖

What do you set the timber on to not roll? The white thing?

[buddysmith]

Great video. Thanks. I noticed there is a very small white line around the bottom of the tumbler. Do you not take your design right to the bottom? The last tumbler I did, my shrink wrap melted to the bottom. When I tried to remove it the white coating came off exposing the stainless steel. Do you know how I can avoid this?

[adaraerela]

Everybody tells me to measure the tumbler image at 9.3x8.2 which works great but i end up wrapping the bottom piece under so the image slightly wraps to the bottom of the tumbler. I kinda like it but not sure how "proper" that is.

Thank you for sharing this was so helpful

[pamelablack]

Hello, what setting do you use on your oven? Bake, roasting, air fry, …etc?

[nadirahrashada]

Do you any tips for sublimation tumblers with lots of black or burgundy? I've don't a few football tumblers and sometimes the black or burgundy is light or brownish in some spots.

[mallorystiles]

I’m just starting out in the sublimation tumblers, just curious I see people baking at 400°, I see you did 350°, do you have to use different inks for different temperatures or will they all come out using 350° or 400°? I just don’t want to take the chance of melting anything at 400°. (Especially the shrink wrap)

[regretarbor]

Great job! Looks perfect. Would you mind sharing your oven make and model? Thanks!
