I stumbled across a video of yours a couple days ago and I must say, you explain and speak at a peace where I don't need to rewind wondering what he said.
Unlike other videos where the host speaks so fast and with a voice that pierces your ear drums. Thanks for all the tutorials and tips.
Thanks so much, Mike! And thanks for watching!
Great video and great advice!!!!! Love your designs too!
Thank you, thank you, and thank you! Oh, and thank you for watching!
This was really helpful, just purchased a whole bunch. They have ones with the little non-slip doo-dads on the bottom that I'm excited to try out too! Thank you!
YES! I almost bought some of the non-slip doo-dads! (And I LOVE that name!) I guess I’ll have to try them soon! Thanks for watching!
Came for the instructions, stayed for the bloopers! Another awesome video, thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and experience. You've helped me tons!
Thanks so much! Thanks for watching (and staying for the bloopers!!!)
Great video… love the breakdown on the costs and comparison…. Thanks
Stumbled my way down the sublimation rabbit hole and found you... 5 seconds in and i'm a subscriber!! Ty for your videos and energy!
I’m so glad! Thanks for stumbling!!!
A very informative and enjoyable video. I’m going to have to try the socks. I was already debating on whether or not to do that. Thank you for sharing. Loved the blooper reel lololol ❤
Thank you, Lynne! Yes, I love the socks! Thanks for watching, and good luck. You’ll love them!
Great video! I just bought dollar tree socks to TRY to sublimate on for the first time yesterday. I noticed how thin they were & that they already had a lot of threads coming out. Now that I've seen your video, I'm going to order from silky socks & try them out. :) I to had to buy a sock jig file just to put inside the socks & of course it wasn't the perfect size so once I put the socks on, they stretched & well you know how that looks with the design 😅 so glad silky socks comes with the insert & I can't wait to get some & try them out! Going to check out your designs to. Thanks again!
Love your videos..funny and not to fast..love the out takes!
Thanks so much! And thanks for watching!
Hi Roy, Ha ha love it,,,,,,,,,,nice to see you again Thanks for the video 😍
Thanks so much!
Thank you I have gained excellent tips from you. I am a newbie with sublimating products Thanks again my sublimation Guru😊
Awe, thank you so much! I’m so glad! And thanks for watching!
I just found you and I’m SO glad I did!!!
I’m so glad you did too! Thanks for watching!
I’m so nervous about trying new things, but I finally subs my first full length socks today!!! Thank you!!! 🧦
Yay!
For events… design design design! Some of the quick sales for me has been 1 color tee shirts on colored poly shits, ear rings, coozies. I’m now expanding to socks and air fresheners! Great video Roy as always!
Design, design, design!!! Ain’t that the truth! I’ve got a great short upcoming video about a cheap item you can make that’s not sublimation, but hilarious…IF you have a sense of humor, and I know you do! As always, thanks for watching!
Loved the intro editing and shot of your socks
Thanks so much!
Thank you for all the info and I will check out the links.
Of course! Than YOU for watching!
😂😂😂😂 First time watching and I must say I just love your sense of humor 😂😂😂😂
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
Nice video man. Thanks!
Thanks so much! And thank you for such amazing products!
I just caught your video today and purchased the camo pattern digital...obviously the video was fantastic and your bloopers are a hoot 😂thank you for sharing your knowledge, your artistic talent and product vendors. This is something I think I can do. Just got a good deal on a new Epson ET 5170 now researching sublimation ink. Seams everyone has their favorite...just gotta decide.🤔🤪
Thanks so much! Yeah, I use Cosmos Ink, but there are so many that I think are good! Best of luck! Thanks for watching!
I love those socks! ❤
Thank you so much! And thanks for watching!
Just pressed my first pair of Silky Socks. They are amazing. I really like your suggestion to trim around the design because they lined up perfectly! I did camo blue and put my karaoke business name up in the "toe". Can't wait to make more of these. Ordered some XL for my hubby, so I'll just have to figure out how much larger to make the design, as you only had S, M, L designs. I'm guessing I just need to "stretch" the height slightly. Thanks again for the great video!
That’s fantastic! Yes, Silky Socks rocks! You can absolutely stretch the design. I don’t think you’ll need to stretch much. Be careful that it’s not too wide. You may need to stretch mostly vertically! Thanks so much for watching!
Silky Socks are the bomb-diggity!
“Bomb-diggity!” I’m gonna use that phrase in my next video! Thanks for watching!
Silky socks are awesome
Aren’t they! I wouldn’t get any others! Thanks for watching!
Great video!!!!!
Thanks so much, John! And thanks for watching!
Hey Roy long time no hear from and the socks look great!
Silky Socks has some GREAT items. I agree the other brand socks are better suited for testing purposes. Or, perhaps for a one time event then discard unless the quality is better than usual.
Tracey
Hey, Tracey! Yes, Silky Socks are fantastic! Great hearing from you!
lol.........love the end sure made my day
I’m so glad! Thanks for watching!
My sister & I luv wacky socks lol
It's our thing we share ❤❤
Jus ck'd their site, it is amazing, I see why u like them so. Thk u for sharing.
Ya gotta love the wacky socks! Thanks for watching!
was searching for this like crazy for this , I was making me some for my brother and messed so many up because they kept stretching. thank you
Glad you found me! Thank YOU!
Silky Socks is the 💣💣💣
Yes they are!
You had me at "when you stretch it on your big ass foot" .... thank you for this! very helpful!
HA! Thank you, and thanks for watching!
Hey I love your videos and I’ve learned so much. I’m really interested on knowing how you built the butcher paper dispenser. I get the idea of it, but I wanted to know what bracket you used to hold the paper roll and also where you got the paper roll. You said you think you did a video on it, but I can’t find it. I love it and I would love to make one myself. Thanks for everything.
Hey, Beth, I think I did do a video, but I never posted it, so you’re not missing anything! Let me see if I can find the footage and create a video for RUclips. I get the paper roll from Amazon. amzn.to/44Odh3K
The paper roll holder looks like a galvanized flange and black iron pipe with a end cap on the end of it. .You can get them from Lowes. I am curious how the blade is attached.
Thank you for this video. Do you think XL would fit men size 13?
A men’s size 13 would probably work with a L or XL size. I did just check, and if you go with a dozen to drop the price to $2.50, you can mix and match the sizes! (I wish I would have thought about mentioning that in the video!) Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the great info. Don't throw the messed up ones away!!! Donate them to a homeless shelter.
That’s a fantastic idea! Do you mind if I share that in an upcoming video?
Love this video! Do i need to resize when i import into the Sawgrass software? If so, what do you recommend??
Thanks so much! I’m not familiar with Sawgrass software, but if you print it at 100%, it works! Just check that your software will allow you to print at 100%. Thanks for watching!
@INDUSTRIAL fringe I'll check that out. it just let's me resize to whatever size I need.
Great video! What about the trademark infringement on that design because they do look like Converse?
There are a lot of shoes out nowadays that have similar markings. I actually used a couple of other brands as ideas when I designed them. But always go with what you think is most comfortable with you ! Thanks for watching!
Hi Roy! I have te 7710 as well. What are settings your print setting for subbing?
Hey, Dell! I design/resize all images in Photoshop Elements, save as a png, print from Preview, and have “EPSON Color Controls” selected under “Color Matching.” Under “Print Settings” I use “Premium Presentation Paper Matte” and have the print quality set to “Normal.” And finally, under “Color Options,” I have “Manual Settings” checked. I hope this helps! Thanks for watching!
Grreat video. what is the dimension of the sock designs. I notice you said it cant be done in cricuit.
Hey! The widest part of the sock file is approximately 3-1/4” at the top portion, and the height of the small is 8.45”, the height of the medium is 9.89”, and the height of the large is 10.63”. Thanks for watching!
Can you let us know what size and where you purchase your bags that you put them in? Thank you - love all of your videos and especially the "bloopers" - too funny!!
Hey! My very strong suggestion is to get your socks from Silky Socks! A huge advantage is, they come with the inserts and the plastic bag! Plus they’re great quality! For the bags I purchased to try it myself, I got them on Amazon. If you must go that route, just measure the width and length of the socks you have and search for that size on Amazon. Thanks for watching!
@@industrialfringe953 Thank you - Yes, I will purchase the Silky Socks, did not realize they came with bags!! Awesome!!
YES! That’s one of the really cool things about Silky Socks!
The sick template design … where would I get that from ?
I created all the designs in Photoshop. Thanks for watching!
What shoe sizes match the sock sizes?? For example, would a MEDIUM be a size 6-8?? LARGE, 9-12???
Hey, Kraig, great question! The Silky Socks website says Medium is a men’s 6 - 9 or a woman’s 7 - 10, and a Large is a men’s 10 - 13 or a woman;s 11 - 14. And based on my wearing experience, that’s right. I’m a size 11 and I wear larges. Silky Socks has a more detailed chart, so be sure to check that out! Thanks for watching!
The masked men look like John Stamos and the lead singer from the Beach Boys (can't think of his name).
Love the Silky and thank you for the explanation. Well worth the money. Thank you for this Tutorial too.
YES! John Stamos and Mike Love of The Beach Boys! I made some masks for them a while back! Thanks for watching!
@@industrialfringe953 SO AWESOME! Btw…Am a new Subscriber!
Fantastic! Thanks for subscribing!
Good Morning! I just came across your video. GREAT by the way. But, I cannot seem to find the link to Silky Socks. I searched and various sellers come up and I do not know which is the authentic vendor. Can you please re-share the link? Thank you in advance.
Thank you! Here’s the Silky Socks link! silkysocks.com?aff=31
Have you tried Metal Sock rigs from Amazon?
I haven’t yet, but the idea is great! I just love getting the Silky Socks with the jig built in. I did buy some cardboard jigs from them for longer socks and I’ve had good success, but metal would surely last longer! Thanks!
Great video Sometimes Silky has sales for 50% off so I wait for those sales
Thanks! They actually don’t do the 50% off sales anymore. They used to when they had wholesale accounts. Since they’ve restructured their pricing, they do occasionally have sales but those sales are now 6% off. But hey, every little bit counts, right?! Thanks for watching!
@@industrialfringe953 Dang Guess I order so much during those sales - I haven't had to order anything the last two years. I have been sublimating trucker hats - so much fun and just as easy as socks.
Wondering if you would share a link for the clear bags for socks. Thanks!
Hey, Renee! These are the bags I used when I was trying to find cheaper socks. amzn.to/43bSd6Y But I would highly recommend getting the socks from Silky Socks, as they come with the plastic bags you see in the video! silkysocks.com?aff=31 Thanks for watching!
@@industrialfringe953 Thank-you SO much!!
When you place your $150 order do you get varying sizes or just medium?
Hey, Patty! You need to order 5 dozen to get to 150. I order in groups of 12 dozen. So I’ll often get one dozen smalls, three dozen mediums, and one dozen large. If I’m low on one particular size, I’ll just adjust a dozen here or there. I hope that answers your question! Thanks for watching!
Can you mix and match sizes?
You absolutely could!
Do you sell the transfers or the design? Also how much are they?
Hey! I sell my designs on this website, www.georgiamaes.com/digital-designs.html but in the coming weeks, I’ll be moving all designs to my new website, industrialfringedesigns.com. Thanks for watching!
My Epson ET-2800 printer that I converted to a sub printer prints aqua as blue. :(
What are the sizes for S~M~L?
I can’t remember exactly, but they have the sizes listed on the website. silkysocks.com?aff=31 Thanks for watching!
Hi! I'm trying to join your group from my business FB page so I can share your channel with other creators. I can see it in the search choices but when I try to open the page it doesn't show up in the list of results. Is it still open?
Hey, Tam, I’m so sorry you’re having trouble finding it. Try clicking the link in the video description, or type in INDUSTRIALfringe Sublimation and More! In the search box, and it should pop up.
I just joined with my personal page but it has a message that pages can’t join when I click the link from my page.
I think you’d get a lot of members if we can keep it on the page we use for our crafting and/or business. Please consider?
I’d love to share your videos without having to switch profiles back and forth! ❤
What size of printer paper do you use?
I use 8-1/2” x 11” paper and print my designs at 100% for them to fit perfectly on Silky Socks. I should have mentioned that in the video! Thanks for asking, and thanks for watching!
@@industrialfringe953 thanks!
I enjoy each video you make! Thank you so much for the videos, and especially, your honesty.
if we purchase designs from your website does that give us commercial use rights?
Yes, up to 100 times for my designs. For more than that, please email me from the website. Thanks!
I didn’t get the stinky and socks at first. 😂😂😂
HA! Thanks for watching!
Why can't they ship USPS
I guess you could ask them to ship through someone else. I’ve found that, like it or not, most places have a go-to shipper, and it’s often more expensive to have a company use another service. In the case of Silky Socks, it doesn’t matter to me, as I get enough product to qualify for free shipping. And if I were ordering for the first time with a smaller order to see how I like them, I’d be okay with the shipping price…since it would only be a one-time deal! Thanks for watching!
You never mention name of Facebook groups?
If I’m not mistaken, I mentioned the links to the groups are in the description. If you can’t find it, let me know!
John stamos!
Yes!
What is the name of your Facebook page?
INDUSTRIALfringe Sublimation and More!
if you are so concerned about ghosting why not tape the socks to the sub paper?
I’m not really “so concerned,” as long as I’m careful about removing the paper. But using taping is a great idea. Also using a tacky spray, which is probably the route I’d go if I wanted to keep it from moving and didn’t think I could control it! Thanks for watching!
@craftable Things Sent me 👋
I LOVE Patrice! Isn’t she so awesome?!
Harrison Ford and Terry Bradshaw in the masks..
Close! John Stamos and Mike Love from The Beach Boys! Thanks for watching!
I hate to complain ..I love this video but when people keep fingering that package i cant do it that sound sound makes me go crazy
I don’t know that I understand the complaint, but if I did, I’d probably agree with you! Thanks for watching!
