Quick pricing question on heat press vinyl
gooddeal replied to MisterEd65's topic in Business Practices, Sales and Pricing, etc.
$6 a sq ft single color [+ 60% added color ] $2.50 to press / No warranty on the shirt = no recourse for being cheap. -
What would you price this job at???
gooddeal replied to Kelly54487's topic in Business Practices, Sales and Pricing, etc.
If you take the 5786 sq inch's divide by 144 to get sq ft = 40.180 sq ft x $12 a sq ft = $482. Or at $10 per sq ft = $401 or average at $11 = $441.98 Now when it comes to getting the old glue off bleach works fastest / that's where you need the higher price. I'd figure 2/3 of a 24 x 10 yard roll @ $21 plus $10 shipping or $21.66 vinyl cost . Quality is a Bargin at any price. -
Selling Tee Shirt Idea's How to display them?
gooddeal replied to mr300s's topic in T-Shirts and/ or Garments
Prcut and weed your vinyl and display. Take a generator and heat press with you. Have them choose and pay then press em. You won't carry unsold items any more - save materials and don't waste cash. One size does not fit all! -
I have added a piece of red rubber gasket material to mine . I pre heat the hat 3 or 4 seconds . Then I'll lay the vinyl down and heat for 1 or 2 seconds to pre shape , then center and align the vinyl. I will reach under and pull the hat tight before final appling. Truth is you will have some culls

Ya'lls Hospitality needs a little more warmth. But to read between the lines I gather that we need an extra ground line to the cutter and stand. Do we need to ground though the electric circuit or ground it to a pipe? My copam 2500 was very difficult to understand during set up / it has done just fine and is paying it's own way.

I started the homemade screen press
gooddeal replied to sarconastic's topic in T-Shirts and/ or Garments
A swivel for a boat seat has worked just fine vs a lazy Susan. You may also want one of your stations to be covered with a 16 x16 floor tile. You can flash on the other three , heat the tile and use it as a final dryer. We used to burn the screens with a ultra violet fluorescent bulb [ BBY ] in a home made light box. We ordered bulbs from Bulbman in Reno Nev. I suggest that you adapt one arm to screen print signs. -
New business strategy
gooddeal replied to ainakeaboy's topic in Business Practices, Sales and Pricing, etc.
Over 30 years ago I learned that you need to have at least 3 Trades. In today's economy you need at least 9. The vinyl supports interest in the other 8. -
I had a 4 color /4 station. For final drying I installed a 16 x 16 floor tile to one of the stations. I used the flash unit to heat the tile for the final drying. Worked just fine for 1,000's of shirts. Never got a single one back. Vinyl & a heat press is a much simpler way.

Need help with tshirt pricing...
gooddeal replied to cuttingedge's topic in Business Practices, Sales and Pricing, etc.
I charge 15 for singles or 12.50 ea per dozen [ add $2 for extra XL ]. Over 48 sub out. I always have the responce that they want them Cheaper. I just tell the that "Quality is a Bargin " I can do them on a rag shirt cheaper or use a good one that will fit right and last for years. I have no interest in being the cheapest , I don't do this for practice. Hats start at $10 or $99 a dozen / Hats pay better. -
Can we heat press on a foam front hat? Need to order for stock but wondered if they melt or burn .

Okay... so do I need to change my username and business name...
gooddeal replied to Vinyl Vengeance's topic in Business Practices, Sales and Pricing, etc.
a registered Trade mark must include some form of artwork or symbol . If you try to Trade mark words only USPTO [TESS] will reject your application , mark the app abandoned and keep all of you $$$$$$ -
Anyone know anything about this heat press?
gooddeal replied to ramy's topic in T-Shirts and/ or Garments
12 years on a Stahls hot one 16 x 16. Changed the t stat once / they sent it for free. That includes years at the Flea market - why buy a copy cat? -
I bought 5 rolls from Autry , wasted money. Not only shrinkage but the florescent orange and green wimped to pink & baby puke on black shirts. I felt sorry for their sales lady - no wonder she's not making any money. She bit my face off when I wanted to sent it back. Needs a white backing , Siser next order

I too am trying to cut an image. I have imported it into SignBlazer trial and changed it to monochrome and vectorized it but in the process, I have lost the image - only cut the basic outside but lost the interior cuts. Any suggestions?
