Decal Cutting & Heat Transfer 101

  • Saskatoon Makerspace 209 Avenue D South Saskatoon, SK, S7M 1P8 Canada (map)

In this introductory class at Saskatoon Makerspace, brought to you by ND Graphics, students will learn how to create custom vinyl decals using the shop's decal cutter and heat press machine. Through a combination of demonstration and hands-on practice, participants will learn how to use design software to create vector graphics, import and prepare designs for cutting, and operate the decal cutter to create custom vinyl decals. The class will also cover the use of the heat press to transfer designs onto fabrics and other materials. By the end of the class, students will have created their own custom decals and a custom t-shirt, and will have a foundational understanding of the design and production process. This class is suitable for beginners with little to no experience with design software, vinyl cutting, or heat pressing. All materials and tools will be provided, but students are encouraged to bring their own design ideas and inspiration.

The fine print.

We do not offer full refunds for classes. Class tickets can be transferred to another date as long as you contact us at least 4 days in advance so we have time to sell your ticket to someone else. We will only transfer your ticket to the next class one time. With less than 4 days notice, we can refund 50% of the ticket price.

Our classes are primarily designed for adults, however we do allow youth ages 14+ to come to a class with a parent/guardian. Anyone 16+ is allowed to go to a class on their own but must have a waiver signed by a parent/guardian.

*Soap making being the exception, it is an 18+ class.
