Hildebrandt Thermal Express

[LittleQueen]

so my fiance bought me the hildebrandt thermal express stencil…does anyone have this machine? I can’t seem to make my image actually transfer onto my stencil paper..i just get the very outside line no lines for eyes or stomach ect..(i was trying to copy bowser from mario)..any help would be appreciated..thanks :)

I checked it out but it seems like no matter what design i put through it it doesn’t copy the lines…its so weird.

first you print your design backwards. this is because you will be printing on the back of the stencil sheet not the front like normal
then you take your stencil sheet and cut it to the size of your design
toss the onion sheet and the yellow sheet
then place a sheet of printer paper over your design and tape your stencil paper to the blank sheet that is over your design
make sure it covers the entire design
also be sure to tape all sides so it doesnt get pulled off
be sure to have the carbon sheet UP the fax machine prints on the back of the carbon sheet and the heat from the thermal roll inside will transfer the carbon onto your stencil sheet
hit copy
remove tape and viola :)

you may have to guide your sheet in
some fax machines require extra sheets in the paper area, mine wont work if there is i need to help guide it in. then again im using an ancient fax machine

the key is to make sure you never forget to print your design backwards or your stencil will be backwards
whats also nice about it is once your fax machine runs out of ink itll still work because your fax will still try to copy the design and it will still apply heat to the proper areas :D

i may make a tutorial video one day and post it on my youtube channel
it works really well
