[@carolyntapia3205]

Temp?

[@TheRhinestoneWorld]

That would depend on the material you're using! You can find more info using the link below. www.therhinestoneworld.com/Rhinestone-Vinyl-Pressing-Specs - TRW Haley

Thank you for these videos! I’ve learned so much from this channel.

[@tocooh6838]

You ARE the MacGyver of HTV. Thanks Matt, you're the best.

[@chrispetee9688]

As a long time embroiderer you can buy chairs that the top slides off easily for decoration. SanMar and S&S Activewear sell them wholesale. I did one for a local theater director. So easy!

[@ffdparker1]

What temperature are you running the press? The chairs we are working with are polyethylene fabric. When pressing, i am melting to the press if I use it for the full 8 seconds. Do I need to look for a Nylon Chair?

[@TheRhinestoneWorld]

+Darrell Parker Hey Darrell, I am not sure why we had not commented until now, I do apologize for missing this. A polyethylene fabric would be weaker under a heat press, so I would recommend a Nylon chair to do better. :) TRW Nick

Gr8 job

[@TheRhinestoneWorld]

Thanks for Watching. Matt

[@lacieterry8430]

Never thought of doing a chair! Thank you for the video!!!

[@Marie.mcxii_09]

Your videos are well informed!!! Love you guys tutorials! Great job on the chair, very cool.

[@jessiegibson9023]

Another great video Matt newbie I am learning so much from the video thinks

[@gerasteele5201]

Do you have to be careful to avoid any certain fabric type for the Easy Weed to not adhere? Thanks for the chair idea!

[@morganlutz8497]

I have a kids chair, made of "100% polyethene foam pad" would you recommend using heat transfer or vinyl?

[@TheRhinestoneWorld]

Hello, It it a hard surface? We don't recommend heat pressing on plastics like that, because they have a low burning temperature. FDC Sign Vinyl should work if it is a harder surface. TRW, Grant

[@morganlutz8497]

TheRhinestoneWorld I would say it was a hard surface, but I ended up trying it, kept it at a low heat and it seemed to adhear pretty great. Thanks for the video!

[@juannybarraa9356]

What temperature do you use for folding chair?

[@TheRhinestoneWorld]

Here's a link to our fabric guide and temperature recommendations: indd.adobe.com/view/6452e0de-4c24-43d1-b1cd-6fef0970c1fb www.therhinestoneworld.com/Rhinestone-Vinyl-Pressing-Specs -TRW Bri

[@sellis1966]

Great video! Do you have to use the Easyweed Htv only?

[@TheRhinestoneWorld]

Hello, Yes, all of the vinyl used was Easyweed HTV :) TRW Kaitlin

[@anitaramirez163]

Hi there wanted to let you know I. Have used the easy weed extra on the chairs as well . and it works great . Thanks for sharing your videos they are awesome ..

[@marcierecendez7057]

Can we use Siser Glitter HTV to a folding chair, or would it crack . I seen you did it in regular Siser vinyl . Thanks in advance

[@TheRhinestoneWorld]

Hello! What kind of folding chair is it? I would probably recommend decal vinyl. That can be found here: therhinestoneworld.com/Main-Category/Sign--AND--Decal-Materials/Subcategory-1/FDC-Sign-Vinyl. - TRW Richard

[@judyblaise1639]

Good video, never thought I could do a chair! Thank you Do you think you could show how to do a ball cap if you don't have a hat/cap heat press?

[@deedeescraftees]

***** You could always use the gloves that come with Hair Wands, you can buy them at beauty stores also. That'll help with protecting your hands and being able to hold the items that you are pressing.

[@judyblaise1639]

***** Thank you

[@judyblaise1639]

elliesmohm thank you -- I'll go look for the gloves

[@KassiahFaul]

Awesome Job, Matt! I can't wait to make one of these

[@Craftybowladychannel]

Great video!

[@harryjohnsonii3355]

That’s pretty sweet! Have done lot those? Still holding up! That’s awesome

[@jordanwillis5230]

Could you use easy Weed Extra on the folding chair too?

[@TheRhinestoneWorld]

Hey! We actually haven't done that, we can certainly put it in the rounds for a lab, but it may be quicker if you did it and let us know so that we can have a stockpile of info. :) TRW Nick

[@Justin-tx4xo]

Thanks for this tutorial! You guys do great work!! Just a quick question, is there a certain heat press vinyl that you recommend? Thank you!

[@TheRhinestoneWorld]

+Justin Greene Hey Justin, we would recommend EasyWeed as it is the thinnest so it isn't going to crack on you. You can also do EasyWeed Stretch. :) TRW Nick

[@Justin-tx4xo]

+TheRhinestoneWorld Sweet, thank you!! I tried a practice run on my cheap fold-up chair with the t-shirt vinyl that came with my plotter but I think the chair is way to plastic and the vinyl didn't adhere great in all places. You guys are awesome!!!

[@TheRhinestoneWorld]

Aww, thank you! I would check out some Siser EasyWeed that we offer, because that vinyl is pretty wonderful. :) TRW Nick

[@Justin-tx4xo]

+TheRhinestoneWorld Consider it done, thanks!

[@turky2tyme]

Have y'all tried doing stadium seats also

[@TheRhinestoneWorld]

+joe garza We have not....yet. :) But that is a great idea! TRW Nick

[@USMCWarrior7]

What would something like that chair retail for?

[@TheRhinestoneWorld]

Is the bring us the chair I would charge $25 just for the customization. Matt

[@TheRhinestoneWorld]

Hello! You should be able to use glitter on that that for sure! - TRW Richard

[@marirobinson2589]
