    I use Inkscape and I resize the image in the program to the exact size I need. I made a spreadsheet for different types of tumblers so I know what size to make it. Then when I print the image I just cut off the excess and it wraps perfectly to the other side every time.

    Great video you're a good teacher!!! Laugh with you when you were trying to say butcher paper lol Try my first tumbler and I made a big miss it was 20oz I know that happened was setting the press and put the tumbler in to set it for the pressure and did not realize I had it turn when to my computer to finish something oh boy bad bad mistake learned my lesson for sure was so mad at myself it was a burn a bit in one side now I am a little bit afraid to try again!!! But I will when I get my conference back!!!I Have done a lot of mugs so don't know why I did what I did maybe old age lol I am still learning about Sublimation having been doing it that long still a newbie!

      Thank you very much, Bettie! I made a similar mistake once when I was using my heat press to sublimate something. I walked out of the room and about 15 minutes later came back and realized what happened. My sublimation image went through to my press's pad and ruined it. I now have an auto open press:)

    • @MakingwithMarilyn
      @MakingwithMarilyn  8 месяцев назад +1

      The dimensions vary based on the brand of tumbler. I often have to go up to 9.5 inches for some tumblers. 8.2 has alway been tall enough for me, but again, it depends on the tumbler brand. I print from Inkscape.

    I have the same press and settings, each time you open the clamps there is a smoke that briefly comes off of the mug and a smell. Did you have the same experience, does it go away with use?

    • @MakingwithMarilyn
      @MakingwithMarilyn  Год назад

      Part of the smell goes away fairly quickly. But with sublimation tumblers, you will continue to have a smell with any press. At least I still have a smell with all of my tumbler presses.

      I’m so glad your first tumbler turned out pretty well. My first several were not 😌 The only thing I can think of is that possibly you had too much pressure. Was the pressure pretty tight? You need it firm enough to touch the tumbler and keep it in place but not super tight. Let me know if you find a solution.

      That all really depends on your market. I live in a small town with a bit of a depressed market. However, your market may be better. You can also check on Etsy to see what people are selling them for. I get my tumblers for about $5 per tumbler when I find a good sale on Amazon. The expense of the paper and ink is very minimal.

    I would like to do this myself and a several questions if you don't mind answering them would be great? What do you use to get your designs and is there a current software you have to have to do this on your computer? Do you know if you can convert a printer you already own to do sublimation? I would also like to know what you do to make your shirts? Is it sublimation or something else?

    • @MakingwithMarilyn

      I get most of my designs from Creative Fabrica. I have an annual membership. You can use any design software and some people even print from programs like Microsoft word or Cricut Design Space (size limitations though). Personally, I would recommend a design software such as Inkscape. I use Inkscape to print my designs and it is free. To convert a printer you already have, you would have to take all of the ink out first, including that which is in your tubes, and you may have to flush it out, but I am not sure on that. There are videos on doing it, though. And not all printers are good for doing this. Epson Ecotanks are often used as sublimation printers. On shirts, I use sublimation, vinyl, the dtf/sublimation hack, rhinestones, etc. So, I have various methods that I use. Thanks so much for watching! And let me know if you have more questions.

    The tumbler is gorgeous!
    I recently started making tumbler designs as well, is there any way to contact about a collaboration/sponsorship?

    Love this!! What size do you cut the image for a 20oz tumbler?

    • @MakingwithMarilyn
      @MakingwithMarilyn  Год назад

      I have had different brands be slightly different sizes, so I typically cut a piece of computer paper first in order to get the correct size. It will be somewhere around 8.15 inches tall by 9.4 inches wide, but you will want to dial in the exact measurements for your tumbler. Thanks for watching!!!

    Which printer do you use? Which brand is the heat transfer ink?

    • @MakingwithMarilyn
      @MakingwithMarilyn  9 месяцев назад

      I use 2 printers for sublimation - an Epson Ecotank 2760 and an Epson Ecotank 15000. I mostly use the 15000. I have Cosmos sublimation ink in the 2760 and Hiipoo sublimation ink in the 15000. I slightly prefer the Hiipoo ink.

    Question do you seal these or is it good to go like this. I made one and it looks perfect but then after a few uses it seemed to get scratches.. it is just maybe the brand of cup?

    • @MakingwithMarilyn
      @MakingwithMarilyn  Год назад +1

      It could be that. I'm not really sure. I have never sealed mine but I do hand wash them. My husband puts them in the dishwasher once in awhile on the top rack and so far so good. Out of all my tumblers, I do have one that the sublimation coating is chipping off at the bottom though.
