Default Heat Press Machine

Hi, someone gave me this heat press today. It was sitting in my customers basement since 1997. Is anyone familiar with this make?

Thanks

Default Re: Heat Press Machine

this is an airwaves unit...I am not sure they sell presses any longer but here is a link to their site
Air Waves Inc. - Home Page
This is a manual heat/timer setting...heat setting is on the top of the top platen and the timer is on the front of the unit.. I would plug it in to see if it works ...and then test to see if the press will pass the paper test...putting paper strips on all sides and then put full pressure on to see if the pressure is tight .. I think this will go to 400 degrees F and should do fine

I think this unit was manufactured by Hix and private labeled by air waves. That is a nice gift. .....JB
