Tired of handing my dreams/ideas away (advice needed)
Posted: Sun Feb 15, 2009 2:51 pm
Hello, I am new to the forum and could use some of your valuable wisdom.
So, after handing over damn near all of my good graphic designs and ideas to a small start up (a clothing line) I had enough. I decided to set up a 6 color manual, table top press to print out my own shirts at home. What I am looking for (and my questions are):
1) Easily transportable (I plan to do live printing at events etc) 6 color table top press. If I could find a great starter package such as this one, it would be incredible http://www.silkscreeningsupplies.com/si ... duct/1008P
What do you think? Is this a good deal?
2) I need to be able to do all over prints (is that possible with manual presses?) as well as be able to print on hoodies as well.
3) I can't afford a conveyor (dryer) at this time, is a flash dryer the closest I can get?
4) I am considering this offer: http://teeshirtprinterscom.ecrater.com/ ... id=2357414 . My only concern is how good of a press this is. If it does a good job, it would free up enough capital for me to be able to afford the rest of the materials needed.
I would appreciate any and every feedback. I need to make a decision soon.
Thank you,
