Tools & Supplies to Make It:
- Sawgrass SG1000 Printer
- Sawgrass VersiFlex Inks
- TruePix paper
- Flat Heat Press
- Felt Banner
- Heat Tape
How to Make It:
- For this project, we are using a sublimation blank
- In the Sawgrass Print Utility we chose Polyester for the product.
- We printed this on 11×17 Truepix paper
How to Press It:
- Turn on your press on and set the temperature to 375F (191C) degrees
- If you see any dust, lint roll your print area to make sure your surface is clean.
- Lay your felt banner facedown on to the printout and secure with heat-resistant tape.
- Press the felt for 60 seconds at medium pressure.
- When finished, remove the banner.
Tips & Tricks:
- Because of the size of this project, the key to avoiding the lines you sometimes get when pressing polyester is to leave the paper bigger than the product; by taping the product to the larger paper, you’ll not see those lines.
- If you are setting this up in the MySawgrass Design Tool, you can use a custom canvas and then the triangle shape from Shapes in Elements to build your product.
