New To Magnet Making?

Thinking about starting a magnet business? Start here.

You don't need to know everything before you begin. Let's make sense of the basics first, then you can work out what actually suits you.

First Things First

What kind of magnet do you want to make?

Different magnet styles need different equipment, so this is the best place to start.

Pressed magnets

Made using a magnet press and individual components. This is what MagMaker Hub currently focuses on most.

Flexible magnets

Printed onto magnetic material and cut to shape. They use a different setup and don't need a traditional press.

Starting With Pressed Magnets?

The basic setup is pretty simple.

Magnet press kit Usually includes the press, matching cutter and your first set of magnet supplies.
Guillotine or paper trimmer Used to trim your printed sheet down so it fits neatly into the cutter.
Printer + paper Start with what you already have if it works for your setup.
Phone, iPad or computer For creating and managing your artwork.

Choosing Your Press

Choose around what you actually want to do.

You don't need the most expensive machine just because you want to start a business.

Hobby A simple plastic press may be enough.
Business Enters is one of the presses I personally use and recommend.
High volume + events I use Titan for this side of my own business.
