I have used this equipment to experiment with different mediums. There are no assembly instructions and the pictures don't match what I received. Some of the mounting holes are slightly off so the big platen is skewed but still works well. The guidelines for heating different mediums have to be adjusted to get them to work. YouTube is your best friend here. I have successfully sublimated on tile, leather, cloth, wood, mousepads and heat transfer vinyl (htv). Looking forward to more projects to create and sell.
