making my setup more portable.
« on: October 24, 2011, 08:14:18 AM »
We've been getting into doing events and the hardest part is making sure that the space has a place for our heavy heat press.

Any leads on affordable heat press stands?  Suitable alternatives?  Must be fairly easy to move and collapse to fit in a back of a Sonoma.

I'm also kicking myself for not picking up a stand for my PCUT.

Would a folding Black and Decker "Workmate" table work for you? Just a quick thought. :cheers:

Maybe, I actually might have one of those in my basement.  I'll check it out.

The heat press is ~100 pounds, plus any downward pressure, but that might be the easiest solution!

take a smaller lighter press to the meets like the sunie or the smaller mighty press - they are around 50lbs
