    Melissa! Binging on your videos and learning about foiling. I'm ready to get my first heat press! I'm wondering, the small pink heat press you have, is that big enough for me to start foiling 8.5x11" sticker sheets? Or do you recommend I just jump up to the larger one? Thank you for your videos, and for your help!

    • @SilhouetteSchool
      @SilhouetteSchool  Před rokem

      The small craft press it's 9x12 so you could fit an 8.5x11 sheet on there, but for there are 15" heat presses available, like this one. shrsl.com/3rvi3 It's bigger and less expensive so might be worth considering

  • @LittleBooPip
    @LittleBooPip Před 2 lety

    Thank you for this! But should I do the paper test WITH the blanks I'll be using? Like, should I put a tshirt in the press while doing the pressure test because I feel that if I do the pressure test without a shirt, it would automatically make it heavy when I add the shirt?

    • @SilhouetteSchool
      @SilhouetteSchool  Před 2 lety

      I would only do that if you're pressing something that is thicker like wood.

    Thank you!! My next issue is that when I have it set to "high" pressure, the whole platten is too far down. So when I slide it over, it moves the whole shirt. How can I adjust the height of the platten?

      Turn the knob on the back of the pressure handle to reduce the pressure.

  • @martymaddox5214

Underneath the press. The front isn't through the holes. I would need to Unbolt it but I'm gonna contact them to see what I should do.
