I wouldn't bother making that a 4 station, just make it one color...Registrations is going to be off with that and the platen doesn't swing for multiple shirts and flashing.

Cool design, I don't mean to be a negative nancy...I would say fun for a beginner, but just keep it simple with a one color setup...
