Another interesting and informative video Angie. Thanks for reading my mind and covering topics I’ve been mulling over recently! 😉
You are so welcome!
Purchased this tumbler press after watching your video - LOVE IT! Great video appreciated all the great detailed information.
Happy to help!
I love that glass tumbler. Looks awesome. I agree with Lynda, you read my mind on this topic! Thank you for doing this review and tutorial.
You are so welcome!
@@AngieHolden Hi Angie, I forgot to ask. Can you sublimate photos on the glass tumblers? I am so excited as I just purchased the press tonight. I made my first Tumbler for my Grandson's birthday with him and his step dad in the dirt bike uniforms standing by their dirt bikes at the Daytona MotorCross. (Step dad saw the tumbler and said "I want one too!" Sooooo cool. ) Thank you for all your help with your tutorials. I refer to them a lot. The first tumbler was done in the Mug Press and I decided I better get the tumbler press. ;-D
Great video, Angie! thank you!
Thank you so much I am looking at buying a tumbler heat press and this video helped me a lot!!
I'm so glad!
Wow! Never knew it was glass tumbler! All you tumblers and mugs are beautiful!
Love the glass!
Thanks great info, I will check this out for sure.
Glad it was helpful!
Those glass tumblers are amazing.
They really are so great!!
Love the video.. I just found the presser.
Yay excited for this bc I have this press!!! Woohoo
Oh yay!! Do you like it?
@@AngieHolden yes its great. I ordered a bunch of cups too but needed a video to help with this specific one! Love all your videos
Thank you so much!!!
You're welcome!
Beautiful
Thank you!
great teaching video
Glad you think so!
@@AngieHolden yes I do you are welcome honey
I love this press! A decision maker was you can get different inserts for wine shot glasses etc.
Yes that is the best!
i like this video😄
Hi Angie! I absolutely love your channel. You are my go to when it comes to anything Cricut or sublimation!! I have been having issues with a pink-like “halo” around some of my sublimation projects (mugs and tumblers). Any idea why?? Thank you!
Try aligning your printheads and see if that helps.
Thanks, just got a Wala tumbler press so i can mass produce for my bizz. This was fun to watch!
I hope you love it!!
After watching your video (which i loved) I purchased this unit in July. I wanted to get used to it before my busy season. It is now Dec 2022. After 27 mugs/tumblers the unit will only heat to 176 degrees. I have sent the company several messages and many pictures of the temp/mugs/tumblers. They have yet to get back to me. After reading the amazon reviews I see I am not the only one have trouble after 25 pieces. Last review I read they make you purchase another heating element. Just thought I would share the problems this unit is giving us. Thank you for all you do.
Interesting! This is the first negative thing I have heard! Mine is still doing great!
@@AngieHolden PYD has finally reached out to me and agreed to replace the heating element which they intend to warranty that one for three month. I remain hopeful that this was just a one time occurrence. Will keep you in the loop if that one does the same thing. Thank you
Thank you for the videos. The seams are the only problem 😬😬
They are SO HARD! I need a seam intervention.
great video - link to those mugs is broken. anyway to get a new link as I love that mug you showed.
Thank you for doing the review. Your video was very helpful. I was wondering if there was any smell to the machine heating up? Thanks
Yes definitely. I feel like it gets better over time but at first it is really strong.
Love the fact you can do more that 20oz tumblers! I’ve been wanting a tumbler press for ages. Not sure I can get this in the uK though 😖
BOOOO!
@@AngieHolden I’ve contacted them as I’ve found on their direct site they do ship to the Uk, on Amazon it was over $600 though 😱 I like the idea of the different size elements they do, all others seem to just be 20 or 30 oz
Hello Lindsey,you're in UK?We can send you from China,if you still need it,just feel free contact with us.
@@pydlifeamazon1121 I have actually ordered one and it’s on route by boat now 👍🏼
@@lindseysproson4116 Great!
Nice work lm new at your channel patty’s in Westminster md
Thanks and welcome!
Hi Angie, do you recommend starting off with a Cricut Mug Press first? I'm just starting off with a home business selling custom made items and was thinking of adding mugs & tumblers into the mix. What do you think? Thanks for your help and for all the detailed info you always supply us with!
If I was going to do a business, I would invest in something like this press and not even get the Cricut Mug Press.
nice
Interesting how each press is so different in terms of wrapping blanks, times, and even functions. So PYD uses decently heavy pressure(seeing you close the press). How long is the heat coil(attachment)?
Also, from my searching and personal use, this is about the standard price for a good quality press. Definitely appreciate the review!
You can definitely use less pressure but I prefer a tight press. I am not sure of the length of the coil.
Great video! I've been looking at this tumbler for a while now and was wondering if you would still recommend this or if you have a go to tumbler press that you use.
Yep this is still the one I use!
@@AngieHolden Finally took the plunge and bought it. had to come on here and let you know. It arrives tomorrow! I'm super excited.
Hi! thank you for this amazing video. I have one myself and just recently started struggling with ceramic mugs. Can you please share the temperature and time did you use for these? Also, did you press with more of a tight pressure? TIA :)
I would say a medium pressure. I am actually not sure on the time and temp. Sorry!
@@AngieHolden you are not sure about the time and emperature you use?
Hey! So I have the one with just one attachment so I have to buy the other attachment so I can make the glass can’s or do I have to change my tumbler press for this one instead?😵💫🤗💕
I am not sure if they sell the attachments separately. You might message them on social and ask!
I’m looking to purchase a press and this caught my eye. I figured if Angie uses it it should be ok. I got a lemon on the last one I purchased. I see they have a 9-1. And a 11-1. What is the most difference between them and the 2 and 1? Thanks. I love your Videos. Any info would help in my decision.
Just more coils for more sizes!
I have the PYD Life press and am struggling with ceramic mugs. My blacks are turning brown I have tried 400 degrees, 380 degrees and times anywhere from 180 to 280. Do you have any suggestions? I'm using a Cricut 15oz blank. Thanks! I have the Epson F170 and Epson paper, I have not had any trouble with water bottles.
Sounds like you are overcooking it. I would try less time.
I really enjoy your videos, and after watching this one, I bought this press. But I have a question, I pressed a glass that was for sublimating. the problem I had is I tried to redo it and add something else to it, and the glass broke after a few mins, I had the press temp at 365 for 140secs. but it broke with in 20 secs, my questions is can you add stuff to the glass jars and if you can, what do you put the temp at and for how long? and if you can't add anything to your designs, was that the problem? I hope you understand what I'm trying to say..TIA
I didn't press any of these twice so I am not sure!
Hello! I am using this press and I am having trouble with the middle of my mugs having a faded look and the ends (and taped seam ) are very vibrant. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks!
I would check the fit first. Put a mug in cold and look to see if it is touching and tight all the way around. Sounds like maybe the coil is too large.
Have you tried washing the glass tumblers yet & if so how did they hold up? Have heard the frosting scratches off as well as the sublimation.
I haven't used them enough times to say at this time.
Hi Angie, thank you for all your informative content on RUclips and elsewhere! I have this same PYD Life tumbler press but I want to know if you are using the large carrier attachment for the 20 oz tumbler. I am using the attachment that says 20 oz tumbler wrap and the adjustment knobs are almost fully screwed out but the tumblers are slightly bent when I press them. Instead of remaining round, they are slightly oval. The clear lid will go back into the cup, but I don't want this to happen necessarily and I am concerned that the knobs are almost fully extended. Do you think there is a problem with the machine? It presses designs onto the tumbler beautifully, but bends the tumbler.??? I'm just frustrated and concerned. Your comments would be greatly appreciated, thanks!!
I haven't had that issue but I use the other one I think as it is almost all the way closed on my 20 oz tumblers.
@@AngieHoldenThank you!!
Hi I have the same press. I taped the seem 20 oz. Skinny and the top and bottom. 356 for 60 seconds turned 180 degrees and pressed again for 60 seconds but the colors are dull and not vibrant any suggestions
You can try a higher temperature or time and see if that helps. It could also be your blank or even the way you are printing.
When you first put the tumbler in, and there's the temp drop, should I start timing from when the temp is back to the desired temperature?
I start timing as soon as I close it.
What temp and time did you do both stainless steel tumblers? I'm struggling with the outcome.
I always follow the time and temperature indicated where I purchase the tumblers.
Im asking to see if you know of a cheaper one or better or one u trust.Ive been putting it off for a long time because I'm unsure of their shipping time.
I would trust any of the ones on Heat Transfer Warehouse's website if you want to try there!
Can you do the stainless steel stemless wine tumbler’s in this press
A wine tumbler doesn't have straight sides so can't really be done in a press like this. I do those in my oven.
I’m thinking of getting this one. Do you think I can press 20 oz ceramic mugs with the larger attachment? I know people who want the larger coffee mugs but can’t find a Press large enough.
Gosh I have not done any that large so I am not sure.
@@AngieHolden I bought the new 40 oz heater attachment and thought that was what you were demonstrating 🤦♀️. Didn’t realize a 20 and 30 were included. I think the 40 should work.
Can you tell me what time and temp a ceramic mug should be?
I generally look at the time and temperature recommended on the blank I am purchasing.
How would you do a Stainless steel tumbler jus a 1.5 X 4 logo
You can use sublimation if you buy a stainless steel tumbler that is made for sublimation. Then you would follow the same steps as long as the tumbler is a straight wall.
Hi Angie, my new press says DO NOT HEAT WITHOUT TUMBLER
Can you please clarify this for me?
Thank you
Sorry? Not sure what that would be referring to.
Can you print a 32 oz sublimation water bottle with the heat elements that come with the PYD Life Pro Max tumbler press or do I need to buy another heating element?
I have printed a similar one and it worked fine!
@@AngieHolden I bit the bullet and printed on the 32 oz, sublimation water bottle with the larger heat element that came with my brand new PYD Life tumbler press. IT TURNED OUT AMAZING!!!!! I was my first project and I made it for my grandson who loves Pokemon and wanted a Pokemon water bottle for our upcoming school year! I AM OBSESSED!!!!!! I ordered and received some of the skinny glass tumblers, regular skinny tumblers, glitter tumblers and glow in the dark tumblers - can't wait to see what I can make with all of them and guess what everyone will be getting for Christmas and/or birthday gifts this year!!! SERIOUSLY LOVE THIS MACHINE! Thank you for your on point video which solidified my decision to purchase it! I will upload and send a picture if that's allowed.
Do you put in a tumbler blank when it is heating up? And one again when finished as it cools down.
I do not.
@@AngieHolden ok thank you for your quick response. Tried my machine last night and it worked great. Love your videos. Thanks for all you do.
Angie, I have this press and it's been burning my tumblers. I checked the temperature and when set at 400 it's actually 435! Do you know how to calibrate the temperature, or if I even can? Thanks!
I don't think you can. I would just turn it down.
@@AngieHolden that's what I thought and what I ended up doing. Thanks for responding!
If you have time?Today I'm buying my 1st heat press.What company or brand would u recommend?The one I'm buying is 500 and it's 8-N-1.
Try this: ruclips.net/video/3nLPL5SWbFs/видео.html
Thank u so much!!
I'm going to guess that it's only a matter of time before Cricut comes out with something and it may well be easier to operate.
Maybe? Not sure!
Have you notice your heating element bubbling up? I have only had this machine a few months and recently noticed that the heating element bubbled up. The company is sending me another one to replace its but I noticed the other element that came with it did the same thing and released some smoke that smelled when it popped. I emailed the company again and waiting on response. Just wondering if you have had this same issue. Thank you!
I definitely have not!
@@AngieHolden thank you!! And thanks for your videos. They are super helpful!!!
Oh goodness, I just ordered and received my pyd life tumbler. I thought I had ordered a 20 oz tumbler press, however I have 20 oz tumblers. Is it possible to press 20 oz tumblers in a 30 oz press?? Big expensive mistake 😫
You should be able to.
What about glass mugs andtumblers. Time and Temp..?
With ANY blank, find the time and temperature wherever you purchase the blank as each one is different.
@@AngieHolden Can I use HTV?
Hi Angie, I'm having an issue where my images are not transferring at all. Any advice?
Not transferring at all is one of two things: you don't have sublimation ink or you don't have a sublimation blank.
@@AngieHolden I appreciate the response, thank you soo much. I made some changes to the printer preferences that you recommended and I'm getting the image transferred but it is extremely dull. I've cleaned the heads as well.
Cleaning the heads is not necessary. Press a print to a 100% polyester cloth to test to see if things are working properly. If they are, it is your blank or the time/temp/pressure you are using with that blank.
@@AngieHolden thanks Angie! I brightened my print up ALOT and it transferred beautifully. Now I just have to try to clean the others so I'm not wasting them lol. Thank you sooo much.
i love ur glue gun is it cordless? Where did you get it!!!?
It is! It is from Surebonder.
@@AngieHolden Thank you!!!
Did it just smoke for the first time when heated
Yep. When you plug it up for the first time it does. After that it does not. Definitely open a window.
Where do you get the protection paper?
I like the Artesprix brand. You can see more here: ruclips.net/video/zrERc-9RzGE/видео.html
@@AngieHolden You are Awesome!!!!! Thank you so much!!
Can you use this for 30 oz tumblers?
You can double check the diameters but it should work!
Today I used my PYD press for the first time. It had a horrible smell that stunk up my entire store. Is this normal? Will it go away?
It stinks the first few times you use it but it does go away.
Hi! The smell is horrible is that normal?😵💫
It will be the first several times you use any heat press.
No customer service. None! Can't even get a chat session. Don't buy!
