Description
I highly recommend watching multiple YouTube videos to learn tricks and tips from other sub-artists!!! These are guidelines only.
Using a constant temperature tumbler press:
Temperature: 375ºF / Time: 70 seconds (45+25 seconds if rotating) /Pressure: Medium
Preheat mug press before using
Place transfer face down against tumbler, tape into position
Cover with a piece of plain paper or teflon sheet.
Slide into mug press
Press at 375ºF for 70 seconds (no opening in press)
if your press has a small opening press for 45 seconds then rotate 180º and press for an additional 25 seconds
Remove from press and submerge in room temperature water.
Transfer paper can be removed before or after placing into water.
Epoxy or Glue the tumbler into the snow globe piece so that the top seals.
Fill your snow globe with glitter, liquid etc through the hole at the bottom
Seal the hole with epoxy or thick glue
Using a convection oven and a silicone rubber wrap:
Temperature: 400ºF / Time: 4-6.5 minutes/Pressure: Medium
Preheat oven – an oven thermometer is highly recommended for a precise temperature reading
Place transfer face down against tumbler, tape into position
If using shrink wrap – tightly cover tumbler and shrink tight with heat gun
If using a silicone wrap – cover with a piece of plain paper or teflon sheet. the attach silicone rubber wrap
Place tumbler on its side, taped side down, in your oven
Heat for approximately 6 1/2 minutes
Remove from oven and submerge in room temperature water.
Transfer paper can be removed before or after placing into water.
Epoxy or Glue the tumbler into the snow globe piece so that the top seals.
Fill your snow globe with glitter, liquid etc through the hole at the bottom
Seal the hole with epoxy or thick glue
Again, I highly recommend watching MANY YouTube videos before you start working with tumblers.
