Thank you!!

Great video, thank you, do you have any advice on sourcing blank high quality T-shirts

Great Video and I appreciate the delivery of information! I just bought my first heat press and things you mentioned I *never thought about! The slide-out feature sounds clutch. I also believe it’d be easier lining designs up if the base slides out. Something for me to think about the next go round. Thanks! #RobbArmstrong

Maybe it's just me. But it looks like the ricomas plates are bigger. I know they're both 15 by 15. I mite be tripping. But great vid brandoh. I'm thinking bout if I should go bigger with my next press or just stick with 15 by 15

There's Gold nuggets in every video!

Question. In reference to equipment, what would you recommend for an individual that’s just getting started? Personally, I’m looking to purchase a MacBook Air 15’’, Ricoma Auto Open 16x20 flat heat press and Ricoma auto open cap heat press. What else am I missing?

What size are your transfers? 15”? I usually do the standard 11-12” max, but that looks good and I like how it fits the size of the platen. It helps to get it straight. Also, what about Hotronix presses? I’m trying to figure out if I need to spend all that money or are the cheaper ones just as good?

Thanks for vids. Which heat press would you use for pressing small to large patches on hoodies and beanies, some athletic material also?

I have the ricoma I tried to press on 100% cotton. Temp was 325 for 7 seconds. The shirt discolored and didn't return. I used Teflon protection. Any advice? Love your. Channel. Thank you

What about surepressure? Im looking at getting a 16x20 and the only one with surepressure is $100 more, plus it does not have the slide out drawer. Is surpressure worth the extra $100 and not having the slide out?

Hi, what is the purpose of the teflon sheets?

It is sad that here in the UK there are not as many heat press options as in the USA and if one decides to buy from the USA the customs price is double that of the heat press. Y.Y

Does this works for hoodies too!

What company has good transfers?

For starting a clothing brand is it more cost effective to buy your own heat press v. Getting your products printing elsewhere?

Why did it not take 15 sec to do the back piece? And where do I get those prints from?

Hi i am a new subscriber, great video! Question: What heat press heats up the fastest? Ricoma or HPN?

@BigBrandoh

8 ай бұрын

Ricoma heats up the fastest but HPN is ready to press quicker. remember heating up and ready to press are two different things. example: both presses set at 320 degrees. Both presses will go over 320 when you first turn it on. it doesnt just go to 320 and stops. it'll go to 340-360 yo make sure the whole heating platen is hot then tapers down to its target heat of 320. so Ricoma will beep first meaning its reached 320 but it'll stay around 340-350 for a while till it comes down to 320. HPN will get to 320 slower but will be ready to use a lot faster than ricoma. it'll go to 340 and come down to 320 quicker. hope this makes sense.

Hi. How long have you had the Ricoma and the Heat Press Nation?

press size depends on your design size. if my designs arent bigger than 15" than the 16x20 is not needed. 90% of my designs never go bigger than 15". bigger press allows you to press bigger designs thats all.

i press 5x and 7x shirts on my 15x15 press. none of my designs ever go wider than 15". but they do make huge presses 30"x40" or 55"x 55" etc... thats how they do the big over all print stuff. if you got a homie that wears a big size. take a ruler or tape measure and measure the center of his chest, go nipple to nipple. its usually within 14" or so. i wear a XXL and nipple to nipple on me is 11" design wider than that might land in the armpits.

I noticed on the 2nd press at the end of the video when you pressed the back transfer and took it off, there's a big white blob on your bottom pad. Is that from the front transfer staining the pad as you apply the back transfer? Would it be a good idea to put down teflon then the shirt on top of that to avoid, or is it never an issue? Just seems like that white would press into shirts and leave residue marks.

@BigBrandoh

2 ай бұрын

you can put down teflon if you wanted too. i choose not too because that makes the pressing surface slippery. i like my shirts to stay in one place when pressing or laying transfers down. the base cover provides just enough friction to hold the shirt in place but also makes it easy to load and unload shirts on the bottom platen. that white mark is from testing transfers from multiple companies. some companies use inks that bleed over under heat. i like to not use those types of transfers or companies. but you never know how these transfers react unless you test them out first. thats why i choose to use the companies i use now because they pass all the tests i throw at them and provide the quality and durability i believe in.
