Hi there! I just recently got into Perler Beads and love the full melt look. I don't like any holes on my design. I used to have a standard iron and no matter how long I iron it and go put pressure there were still holes.

So I bought a Cricut Easypress. What should be the temp setting and how long for full melt? I do tape method so do I melt the side with the tape first? How long? Then how long for the other side? Or do you guys not melt the other side at all?

I just do small designs right now (totally fits inside the Cricut area) and I use the 2.6mm beads.

Any other tips to get a smooth full melt would be appreciated. Thank you so much!
