How to Use Siser Brick 600 HTV to Make Beach Shorts and Clothing Using a Heat Press and Vinyl Cutter

[@LyndsayMakes]

Hey Kenji! Just wanted to write a comment to say how much I appreciated watching this video that you made. It was so nicely filmed and you explained all the steps so well. Thanks for taking the time to share all this information with the world. I'm currently working with Brick for the first time and I have picked up so many tips from your video. Thanks again, I'm excited to watch more of your videos! Cheers, Lyndsay

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

Thanks for such a thorough comment, I appreciate ya! I hope the settings work for you -- I know that it can possibly deviate from cutter to cutter but it's good for me 😄

[@sharon94503]

Know what I love? That you're conscious of your power / time of day usage! Awesome strategy and great tutorial. I'm hoping I can get decent results on my Cricut.

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

Thanks @sharon94503 ! It's something that I definitely noticed quickly because I pay the power bill lol makes a huge difference!

[@oniwindeben4332]

This is my first time watching your content and I find it very cool and inspiring. By the way, what's the brand of your trucker hat and your black T' shirt?

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

Thanks for stopping by! The trucker is a Japanese baseball team on a New Era hat and the shirt is my Vision design on LA Apparel

[@BigDub24]

I got offered this a while back by my supplier and didnt think nothing of of glad that the youtube gods recommended that video it adds a different touch to the garment something like a premium feel I really like it great video buddy

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

Thanks for stopping by! I would definitely recommend buying a small sheet from Amazon before buying a huge roll, but most of the issues I've seen people have are the cut settings. I hope my settings will work for ya!

[@Mxmxv43]

Looks awesome. How’s the durability? How many wash/dryer cycles until the adhesive fails?

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

I forgot to touch upon that in the vid but I have several samples from 2022 that I’ve wash and worn tested rigorously and I haven’t had a single brick peel off. It does fade over time but I wore them (these same shorts) to the gym, hiking, sleeping, day-to-day. As long as you apply them correctly, they will last a very very long time

[@DempsDesigns]

Nice design. Brick is a very nice htv. Thanks for sharing.

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

Indeed! Get that premium look right at home 💫

[@KID_KAIJU]

this video was a W! so informational thank you so much man! Have a great rest of your day!

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

Appreciate ya, thanks for coming through!

[@TheXOXOStudioCo]

that Jollibee funko pop though.. love it!

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

Haha yes! Always making sure I'm getting my work done 😂

[@T3mikelee]

Great video! Had no idea this was even a thing. Definitely looks like an upscale option to standard HTV. Might have to use this for my business. 👍🏼

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

Thanks! Yes, the HTV world goes deep with materials, and out of everything I've tested and seen, Brick remains to be one of my favorites based on look, feel & durability. I'll be doing a video in the future going over my top 5 materials to press 💫

[@trelandon]

Youre really cool brother, thanks for the info on using Brick, much success.

[@chrispatao]

Thanks for the video and love the insight

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

No problem, thanks for stopping by

[@BradO-u9c]

VERY COOL. Thanks for sharing your process

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

No problem! Thanks for stopping by

[@bevryan175]

Hey man super cool video , just 1 question for you can you layer brick on brick ?

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

Never tried it, but the Siser site says that brick should always be on the top layer so maybe not? But who knows, go try it and see what happens!

[@GenzoStudioTV]

Cool video, very informative. Are you able to share your document with the cut settings?

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

Each cutter and blade will slightly vary so the settings won't be 1:1. I highly advise everyone to make their own reference sheet because of this variance

[@GenzoStudioTV]

@ikendoitdotstudio I really wanted it for the sake of the template. I like the way you did yours. But, I understand, thank you

[@scottbaker201]

Good video bro and that design is dope 🤙

Thanks Kenji.

Great video. How did you create that triangle design? It’s 🔥.

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

Thanks! It's a bootleg design I made in Illustrator

Thanks for the coupon code, used!

@@attackangle sweet, thanks for your support 🙏🏼

[@johnayalawoodworks5276]

What font is that though that’s the real question strong and bold

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

@@johnayalawoodworks5276 I took a font and fattened it up and gave it some extra shear. Any sans serif with a similar look can work, I made this over 2 years ago so I don’t remember

[@JasonSwartz-kl7qi]

Do you know what the cricut settings would be? Been struggling with the brick unfortunately!

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

I don't have any experience with a Cricut but if you're able to extend the blade all the way, I would try that and reduce the pressure so it doesn't slice through the transfer sheet

[@DempsDesigns]

I cut brick 600 with my Cricut Explore Air 2 on the iron on + setting, normal pressure

[@SeulKreations]

I have the Cricut Maker 3 and found that using the HTV(Non Cricut) on less pressure worked. I tried following the recommended cutting settings online and it cut through the carrier as well.

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

@@SeulKreations it seems like finding the right settings is always an essential part of the process !

[@latriceprice9578]

Can you translate the cut settings for cricut?

[@Huerak]

Thank you for the video. 😊

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

thanks for watching!

[@mhmosthated8697]

Quick Question What Font Is That for The House Design

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

Helvetica Neue but modified in Illustrator

[@mhmosthated8697]

@@ikendoitdotstudio you think you can make me same design but in my brand name if that’s cool with you

[@jamtaylor1992]

Love this

[@dreamowner100]

Do you have a link for the shorts?

[@rudyguerrero6292]

???? Yea need those too

[@ryanbriceSr.]

would brick work on mesh material??

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

I tried it on mesh shoes but the holes showed through the white. Maybe with a dark colored garment you’ll want to match it with a similar color brick but I wouldn’t recommend it based on that experience

[@ryanbriceSr.]

@@ikendoitdotstudio I figured the holes would cause a slight problem. Figured Id ask for confirmation lol thanks bro

[@rudyguerrero6292]

Hey what blank shorts are they?

[@rudyguerrero6292]

Also thanks for info on hitting brick from inside as well.

[@Canigetanawwwwyyyyeeeah]

If you think the 600 is good. Should try the Siser 1000…stuff is Thicc

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

Heard many people say this but I never have been able to source it !

[@Canigetanawwwwyyyyeeeah]

@@ikendoitdotstudio well it’s funny. Your maybe the 2nd or 3rd person to tell me it’s hard to source (I’m uk) so I don’t know whether there’s just a man (hah) with just an excess in a warehouse somewhere and I’m lucky? and I mean it’s been no problem buying 5m rolls every couple months in white. Both 600 and 1000. Or it’s just literally the last remnants because they don’t really make it like they did. I’ll need to research. But if you can get your hands on it. Worth it.

[@ikendoitdotstudio]

@@Canigetanawwwwyyyyeeeah Perhaps you can be the bridge between the US and Brick 1000 😆
