WANTED: Hat Press (heat press)
« on: April 20, 2015, 07:29:10 PM »
Looking into getting a newer/nicer hat press (mine is ancient and has issues...).  Anyone selling one that's in good shape? No real preference on brand. analog vs digital, etc. as long as it works and the price is right.  Thanks!

I have an old Hix that I wouldn't wish on anyone. That being said, I picked up a very nice Hotronix on eBay a few years ago for about $250; it's ten years old, and works great, it's a digital timer and temperature control, manual pressure. Locks down and opens very smoothly. Check you local Craigslist maybe...

we bought one that was brand new from GSG about 6 months ago, and it paid it self off in about two weeks. same thing with the clamshell that we bought.

That is what I was thinking.....If you make the investment, it will pay off pretty quick....
