Description

These models are free here but if you find them useful and want to support me as a maker or are producing goods commercially please consider joining my club on Printables thank you!

 

I invested in dye sublimation equipment primarily to develop a repeatable process for applying images/decals/etc to my 3D prints. I am happy to share it here with you as well as various blanks that you can print and use for this process.

 

I will be adding more blanks for you right here as soon as I make them!

Printing

 

I use white Bambu PA6-GF for this process. Magigoo PA is highly recommended for adhesion and release. Turn your build plate up to 105c and wait for your chamber to be above 40c before printing. I have had the most success with a 105c bed and 280c nozzle for the print.

 

After printing please let the model cool completely on the print bed, or it may warp. Wash any glue off models after printing, wipe dry, and hot press for 10 seconds to remove moisture, taking precautions to keep the model shape afterwards while it fully cools by putting something heavy on it.

 

Finally, if you have pressed your model properly and find white bits on your model these are usually fine bits of paper that rub or wash off easily.

love this idea. I do sublimation and will order some nylon to give this a try. where can I fine more of your blanks? do you suggest printing on a smooth plate vs a textured one?
