It looks like you have some kind of protractor on the side.. is that something you added yourself? I have a francier studio heat press and I dont have one of those. Also, does that help you with figuring out your pressure?
have you tried oracle 651 white vinyl? how would that be vs using the laminate and spray paint? May help take a step out of the process, but the colors may not be as vibrant.
Usually those glass boards comes with the little rubbery “feet” thingies on the bottom. How do you get those out and I’m guessing they’re replaceable???
the laminate is made of polyester, so the sublimated print will adhere to that. yes, you lay the laminate shiny side up, place your image on teh shiny side of the laminate, the dull side of the laminate has the glue that will make it stick to the glass
@@lgray10101 not totally true. There is no glue on laminate sheets. But my suggestion would be to put the dull side down because that is how it would be if you were laminating paper.
Really, I watched all that to not see how it was finished, or the final product? Come on girl! Also ... for the love of Mike, spend $10 on a heat glove.

Do you put the sub on the back so you don’t reverse the image?

That’s a laser level for when I do shirts. That way I can make sure things line up right

No I have not, but I will try it when I make these again.
What’s the average setting you use when setting the laminated sheet onto the glass I saw 365 @60 correct?
That’s what I did.
What side of the cutting board do you do? The smooth side or scaly side?
The back. Smooth side. You have to remove the little ‘feet’ first.
Does your heat press cause your light bill to go up a lot, do you use your heatpress often? Thanks!!!
No not really. I don't think I press enough for that.

I just pulled off. I bought more from Amazon to use because sometimes all the glue doesn’t come off with the rubber feet. If I can reuse them I will.
Did you spray paint the back or use chalk paint?
Spray painted white
you can still use the design again. make it look even more vintage
Didn't think about that.
What side of the laminate sheet do you put donw on the glass, shiny or dull?
It does not matter, when heated it will be clear
Sorry corrections: Put the dull side down as that is how the laminate would be if you were laminating paper.
What type of paint did you use n the back ?
Just rustoleum white spray paint
Is it regular glass without any coating?
Just a dollar tree cutting board
@@sweetfunkydesigns but we need polyester lamination sheet?
@@shillongmixbag5280 no. It’s just a regular lamination pouch. Pulled apart and use one side. You can pick up at Walmart or Amazon.
So the picture goes on the laminate side

@@zootasplace7344 dull side down equals shiny side up no? Same thing
@@lgray10101 Not if you are saying it is glue. That was the part I was disagreeing with.
I am getting air bubbles between the laminating pouch and the glass. Any recommendations?

Sorry. I thought I did.
