Red face TAB/TILE Press
Hello, Hi, Afternoon, Morning Evening wherever you are in the world

i am looking for a bit of advice with regards to the tab tile press. i have the one with the circle tab shape and the square tab shape and wondered if anyone could help me out as to what shape should i start with before i press.

I have been using the lentil one superb and it pretty obvious getting a round shape to squash into a round shape but should i be starting with a cylinder for the square shape?

and the circle tab just confuses me!

any advice would be greatly received.

Bye for now!

I just use a lemon-round shape for both.

For the square, I tend to use a little more of a barrel shape - seems to fill into the corners of the square a little better. Could just be my odd way of doing things.

I personally recommend a round bead for the the tab and a cylinder for the tile shape...I hope to have a tut online soon. I sell these shapes as well as others so when they are up they may help you...hopefully you will figure it out before them
