Default Looking for a heat press

Any recommendations on a press for heat transfers? IS there any place where I could get a used one, besides ebay? Thanks for any info. Ryan

I looked and looked. I got one off ebay. The cheap home made ones.
I wasted like 10 transfers and couple of shirts with it. I ended up sending it back .

I got a HIX 15x15 swingman from coastal business at the ISS show.
With the hix so far everything looks good. Other than me fubaring the mirror part the transfers are coming out great.

Hope this helps.
Mark

You get what you pay for in a heat press. I recommend buying a name brand and a swingaway if you can afford it. Try to get 15 x 15 or bigger. IMHO
