Thank you, Angie, for helping me make a choice. I was going to head to Walmart today and purchase a convection oven, but after watching your video I used your link and pushed the button on a PYD Life oven. Give me the ease of digital and the security in knowing the oven is doing what it is intended to do. Now I just have to wait for the delivery!
Angie please keep teaching and bringing these reviews for us. I’m a beginners and over the last two weeks I have been trying to make small items. Learning the vinyl etc. I have the sheets from you and will Purchase your book this weekend. I it takes time but you make it look so easy. God bless you.
Finally someone that answers the question. Why buy a sublimation oven. Thank you... May I ask... Do we have to turn tumblers and blanks in the pyd life oven?
I bought the PYD oven and am now waiting for my Epson F170 sublimation oven to arrive. My craft room is over our 3 car garage, so it is up one level from our main living area. My windows do not open in my craft room. So am I going to have to put my oven in the garage? Or can I use it in the craft room?
I love your videos Angie! thank you for all the tips and information. Do you have a video showing or explaining the best ways/methods to sublimate shot glass? Thanks!
I use shrink wrap in my mug press when making tumblers. I wrap the shrink wrapped tumbler with butcher paper to keep the shrink wrap from leaving residue in the mug press. I also cut a small circle shaped piece of butcher paper to place on the bottom of the press where the tumbler sits
I use painters tape instead of shrink wrap. I’ve never had any luck with shrink wrap and would have to buy multiple different sizes. Would you be interested in doing a video to show the difference between using shrink wrap vs painters tape?
Hi Angie, I just bought the PYD LIFE sublimation oven, and I want to sublimate pens. Do you know what temp and time I should use? I wrap in shrink wrap. I love watching your videos and I find them very helpful! Thank you!
Can you do a review for the dog bowl compatible with the PYD oven. That is one reason why I want it. I can’t find any videos with tutorials about it. What shrink wrap would I use for the dog bowl and what brand. Thank you.
How do you get the temperature to go up by one degree? I can only get it to go up in 5 degrees at a time. Not able to set it to 356 degrees. I have the PYD oven.
Hi! thanks so much for your content, it's so informative. I was wondering if you can use the sublimation oven for polymer clay and shrinky dink projects as well?
I have a confection oven that has different cook mode selections such as bake, broil, air fry etc. Does it matter which setting you use when sublimating?
Angie could you please do if you haven't already a video on how to measure in design design space or Inkscape designs for tapered coffee tumblers . I have just started venturing Into mugs and tumblers sublimation and I just cannot get it right the tapered ones . I'm coming close but when it comes to wrapping the tapered coffee tumblers it's not distorted and twisted and not joining . Please help your biggest fan 🙏🙏
Hello Angie thank you for you videos. I have a few questions. I bought a Gourmia airfryer/ toaster oven hoping to use it for sublimation. I just plugged it in tonight to test the temp. I st it for 375 on airfry mode with an oven thermometer in there but when it beeped the thermometer was reading 350. And it continued to heat up it looked like it got up to 400 without me opening. What would you suggest. Can I still use it for sublimation and also do I need to use any of the equipment that goes inside the oven? Thx
I think you could still use it. Maybe just play with times/ temps. Depending on the rack, you may find you get hot/cold spots and a pad will help that.
Are you able to just stand the sub blanks up or upside down to prevent the rolling of the blanks and maybe minimize or eliminate the need to turn? Or would you still have to turn halfway regardless??
@@AngieHolden decided on budget for $99 gourmia convection oven it has worked perfectly on 365 degrees for 4 minutes wish I could post a picture on here Do you have a video how to size it right to match at the seems? I have a print that’s suppose to match but I always print too long
How do I adjust the temperatures on the pyd life oven on top and bottom of the oven to be the same exact and in 1 intervals please and thank you in advance
@@AngieHolden maybe I’m not saying it correctly 😩 how can I change the temp to 356 on top and bottom. Because right now all I can do is 355 or 350 and so on. They say to have both temperatures the same. Thanks for responding 😊
On my second try I added one layer of butcher paper larger than the cup and set a lower temp and time and the second one turned out perfect. The first shrink wrap was from Amazon and the second came with my oven. Thanks for your response.
Yep! I would start with what I used for the tumblers here. It will require some trial and error. I never do mugs in mine as I have a mug and tumbler press.
Jennifer Maker said she does not recommend Nomex pad any longer because one caught on fire in her studio.
Hmmm. I haven’t had any issues!
This was so helpful and helped me make the decision on which sublimation oven to purchase.

You got this!
the flamingo in the convention oven came out a little more vibrant but i love both
Thank you so much Angie. I have been looking for a sublimation oven and work our all my questions.
Angie, Thank you for another tutorial with amazing detail. Thank you, Brenda
You are so welcome!
I had no idea there was a sublimation oven! I am so glad I ran into your video. I am getting one! :)
Yay! Happy to help!
Your videos are so informative and inspiring. Thank you
I'm so glad!
Finally someone that answers the question. Why buy a sublimation oven. Thank you...
May I ask... Do we have to turn tumblers and blanks in the pyd life oven?
I generally do just to be on the safe side. Sublimation blanks are just so expensive!
@@AngieHolden true they are... Do you have a favorite shrink wrap brand. So many reviews say they melt.. Is is user error
I don't have a favorite brand but I buy from a brand or website that I know.

Great tutorial, Angie, as always! Thank you!
Thanks for watching!

I did one here: ruclips.net/video/sgH7HzWRi7c/видео.html
What about a comparison of this sublimation oven vs the Makerflo sublimation oven?
Seriously most of them are exactly the same just with different brand names!
I didn't know there was a Sublimation Oven!!!
Yep! A great investment for sublimation crafting!
Sorry, meant to ask if you can use the shrink wrap on a tumbler going into a tumbler press.
No shrink wrap in a tumbler press.
I use shrink wrap in my mug press when making tumblers. I wrap the shrink wrapped tumbler with butcher paper to keep the shrink wrap from leaving residue in the mug press. I also cut a small circle shaped piece of butcher paper to place on the bottom of the press where the tumbler sits
I use painters tape instead of shrink wrap. I’ve never had any luck with shrink wrap and would have to buy multiple different sizes. Would you be interested in doing a video to show the difference between using shrink wrap vs painters tape?
I am NOT a fan of taping the tumblers.
Hi Angie, I just bought the PYD LIFE sublimation oven, and I want to sublimate pens. Do you know what temp and time I should use? I wrap in shrink wrap. I love watching your videos and I find them very helpful! Thank you!
I actually haven't made pens so I am not sure!
@@AngieHolden Thank you! I found out that it’s 375 for 5 minutes if you want to try them.
Love the video Angie as I always do!!!! Keep with video's coming as you explain it all so well!!!! Thank you for Sharing hugs Liz x
Thank you, I will!
Can you do a review for the dog bowl compatible with the PYD oven. That is one reason why I want it. I can’t find any videos with tutorials about it. What shrink wrap would I use for the dog bowl and what brand.
Thank you.
PYD Life actually has a shrink wrap sized just for the dog bowl.
Can you do a video on the shrink wraps vs the silicone wraps?
I compared them here: ruclips.net/video/sgH7HzWRi7c/видео.html
Great video Angie… I use a convection oven and would like to know if you have a link for the nomex pad?
I do! Let me add it to the description for you!

I would just set to 355. It is not going to make a difference.
Love it! Thank you Angie! Now I feel confident about my Prime Day purchase and can open the box 🤣🤣🤣
You should!
Hi! thanks so much for your content, it's so informative. I was wondering if you can use the sublimation oven for polymer clay and shrinky dink projects as well?
Definitely!
I have a confection oven that has different cook mode selections such as bake, broil, air fry etc. Does it matter which setting you use when sublimating?
I would use bake.
@@AngieHolden thank you.
Hi. Is it possible to sublimate MDF blanks using a sublimation oven? For example MDF earrings
Maybe if you can find shrink wrap small enough? I don't use my oven for anything flat.
Angie could you please do if you haven't already a video on how to measure in design design space or Inkscape designs for tapered coffee tumblers .
I have just started venturing Into mugs and tumblers sublimation and I just cannot get it right the tapered ones .
I'm coming close but when it comes to wrapping the tapered coffee tumblers it's not distorted and twisted and not joining . Please help your biggest fan 🙏🙏
I have been working on something for that for a while. I am trying to find a SIMPLE way to do it as tapered objects are tricky!
@@AngieHolden yes so I've found , I thought they would have been easier so hanging for your help

What did you use in your oven to put your tumblers on. And it burn 🔥
I have a Nomex pad in there. I linked it in the description below the video for you.
Can you sublimate plates in an oven? If so how do you sublimate plates?
Probably not in an oven like this as you have nothing to apply the pressure. They make heat press attachments for them or a vacuum heat press.
Are you able to just stand the sub blanks up or upside down to prevent the rolling of the blanks and maybe minimize or eliminate the need to turn? Or would you still have to turn halfway regardless??
You would have to turn half way regardless. And with the shrink wrap buckled on the bottom, they just don't stand well.
Hi!
What's your opinion on an air fryer?
Thank you😁
It is the same as a convection oven so the same thoughts would apply.
Can I use either for Crocs?
I would not think so.
Do you think that a person should get the warranty for the oven? How long have you had yours?
I have had mine a while now. I tend to not get warranties on anything and take the risk but it is a personal decision.
Hi I bought a convection oven can I also use it for Fimo clay and sublimation?
Yes you can!
Do PYD blanks only have to be used in the PYD oven?
Definitely not! You can use any blanks!
Where can I purchase the sublimation blanks as I'm getting ready to purchase the sublimation oven?
I have the blanks that I used here linked in the description below the video.
I get mine from a person on facebook ships in 4 days and it’s $4.4 a piece but you have to buy in bulk
Do you have any videos of using painters tape
No. I do not use it.
I’m sad I still don’t know which to choose I want the easy but my budget says no but I don’t want to keep losing tumblers either
Definitely hard to decide!!
@@AngieHolden decided on budget for $99 gourmia convection oven it has worked perfectly on 365 degrees for 4 minutes wish I could post a picture on here

I haven't made a video on that yet!
Will the PYD Life oven do pens?
Yep. I made them here: ruclips.net/video/MDoyufpZz3g/видео.html
Question about Nomex pad in convection oven.... I've tried to use a nomex pad in convection oven but items keep sticking to pad.... any suggestions?
I have had shrink wrap melt and stick but that is the fault of the shrink wrap not the pad. It should not melt.
How do I adjust the temperatures on the pyd life oven on top and bottom of the oven to be the same exact and in 1 intervals please and thank you in advance
I don't think it goes in 1 intervals. I just adjust both to the same.
@@AngieHolden maybe I’m not saying it correctly 😩 how can I change the temp to 356 on top and bottom. Because right now all I can do is 355 or 350 and so on. They say to have both temperatures the same. Thanks for responding 😊
Just make it 355. One degree does not matter.
I did my first vessel in the PYD LIfe oven. The shrink wrap melted to the cup. What did I do wrong?
More than likely it is the brand of shrink wrap you are using.
On my second try I added one layer of butcher paper larger than the cup and set a lower temp and time and the second one turned out perfect. The first shrink wrap was from Amazon and the second came with my oven. Thanks for your response.
How many units can you place in the sublimation oven?
Depends on the size of your oven and the size of what you are sublimating. I also do not like them to touch.
When you heat the shrink wrap does it start the sublimation process?
It does not really get hot enough to do that. I have actually tried to see if I could sublimate with a heat gun and it was a huge failure.
Do have to use shrink wrap or can you still use butcher paper?
Shrink wrap provides the pressure needed as you don't have any when using an oven. So, no you would not use butcher paper in this case.
great video
i like your video😊
👍🏻👍🏻
Can I put my mugs in the oven .if so what time a temperature
Yep! I would start with what I used for the tumblers here. It will require some trial and error. I never do mugs in mine as I have a mug and tumbler press.
What is no max paper
Nomex pad. I have it linked in the description below the video.
