You might be asking yourself, "Why should I purchase a Monkey Press instead of one of those 'other' hand-assembled presses I see on eBay?" Great question! Realize that all hand-assembled presses are not created equal. The Monkey Press utilizes a double handle design as well as a Double Power Cam to make the most of the pressure you apply when creating your decorated items. Heat and pressure are the two main ingredients for obtaining quality results when using a heat press. Our design makes the most effective use of both! Check out the the graphic below to help illustrate the difference. Create... Print... Apply... Enjoy!     (Shown w/Optional Power Cam)   So Easy Even A Monkey Could Do It!* * We haven't actually had the opportunity to see if a monkey could do it or not...Sorry. But if anybody out there has access to a monkey and would like to let us know if the monkey was actually able to work The Monkey Press© we'd love to hear from you and see pictures!! Here's are a few of the frequently asked questions we receive: (seriously...these have all been asked at our website) What is The Monkey Press©? The Monkey Press© is a hand assembled machine that allows you to quickly and easily create beautiful custom t-shirts, sweatshirts, tote-bags, mousepads, etc. just like a commercial heat press. What is a commercial heat press? A commercial heat press is a big, expensive machine that allows you to evenly apply heat and pressure to a thin item (like a t-shirt) to transfer an iron-on image to the item. What is an iron-on? An iron-on typically consists of a special paper that you use in your inkjet printer to create images that you can then apply to an item like a t-shirt. What is an inkjet printer? OK...if we're really at that point then we're afraid that you should stop reading this auction, put down the mouse, and back away from the monitor! Can you actually press a monkey with The Monkey Press©? Probably...but we don't recommend it or encourage it! Besides...they usually won't sit still long enough to let you and they get really, REALLY pissed at you for trying!! Does The Monkey Press© really work? YES! It works wonderfully and looks really cool doing it! What is The Monkey Press© made out of? Each Monkey Press© is hand made and assembled using a combination of hardwoods to ensure that it lasts more than a weekend. What if I buy one and I don't like it? Send it back in new condition in the original packaging with everything we sent you and we'll refund your money minus any shipping costs. We don't mind standing by our product but paying for the shipping would get a bit costly! Why haven't you answered my email? We make every effort to answer each and every question we receive in a thorough and timely manner. Sometimes we don't do it as quickly as folks may like. We are truly sorry. We are only human (for the most part) and can only do so much at any one time but sometimes the banana manages to give us the slip! What is the Strongman Edition of The Monkey Press©? The Strongman Edition of The Monkey Press© comes without our exclusive Power Cam© installed. This allows you to save a little bit of money if you are willing to use a little of muscle when making your t-shirts! Can I get the Power Cam© later if I change my mind? Sure! We allow registered users to purchase a Power Cam© at a later date through our eBay store if they change their mind and decide they don't want to add any muscle to the shirt-making process! What is the difference between the Original Monkey Press© and the Portable Edition of The Monkey Press©? About 10lbs, $40 bucks, and the color of the graphics!! Seriously though, the Portable Edition was created due to customer requests for a product with the same quality craftmanship and attention to detail that has made The Original Monkey Press© so incredibly popular (and the prototype for so many cheap knock-offs and poor quality imitations you now see all over eBay) but at a more entry-level price point. Does the Portable Edition come with a warranty? Yup! Same one(1) year warranty that we offer with The Original Monkey Press© comes with the Portable Edition of The Monkey Press© Should I buy an Original Monkey Press© as well as The Portable Edition to make sure I'm ready no matter what type of job comes along? Not only should you buy both editions for yourself but we highly recommend that you by a version for every member of your family (they'll pay you back on your birthday - trust us), a version for each family in your neighborhood (don't want to seem snooty), 2 for your boss (so he understands when you decide to quit in 6 months because your t-shirt business has taken off!), a version for your mail carrier (gotta keep them happy!), a version for the guy or gal that delivers your newspaper (just because), and get one for you pet (since you never really know what they like to do when you leave them alone for the day!)
