HELP! WARPED PEGBOARDS!

Perlerfan 5/9/2023 02:25 pm 2795

I should’ve posted this a few months ago, by the way. I have 28 pegboards (I think) and only 7 of them aren’t warped at all. Is there a way to fix them? I haven’t done much research, but I’ve heard that you can’t fix them.
and I really want to make another huge perler bead without using warped pegboards because they always get destroyed.
and I’m not using masking tape.

And this isn’t because of me, it’s because my mom sucks at ironing.

@kgmnln_44133: I know I just remembered that yesterday by ironing perler and then it’s hot but how do you do it without beads? Do you put the iron close to the pegboard?

Ok I have never warped my pegboards except the big one because I tried to iron a big one for the first time

my boards havent started to warp yet, but based off of what i have read, you can iron over it like you would if youre melting beads, just without any (but i think you should still use parchment paper) and once its hot you can put heavy things like books over it so it is flat when it cools.

also, continuously moving your iron when you melt your beads can prevent warping. it still will warp over time but keeping the iron in the same place for too long makes it warp a lot quicker.

i googled it, and a post from reddit came up:

'I preheated my oven to 195° F with a pizza stone inside. Perhaps a metal tray would also work. I just laid the pegboard on the stone right side up for about 25 minutes, flipped it for another 20, then flipped it again for 10.'

lemme know if it works!!!
