    Just a tip from one who does a lot of shirts. Size is deceptive. I still to this day print out a full sized paper copy of what I plan to put on a shirt to see if I have guessed the size about right. I am often scaling up or down because what I thought would be about right was way too large or way too small for the size of shirt or the particular application. 11 wide sounds really big for a 4T kids shirt. 

    I do that too!

    :o...you didn't mention weeding...I'm sure you meant to do that though....right?

    Guess im just nervous on being able to line up whatever it is and getting it straight and in the right spot on the shirt... i don't think this press swings out of the way its got a bolt that moves up and down with the handle. dads had it for at least 10 years so its a older one.

    Don't worry so much about crooked/straight alignment...I mostly eyeball it too...

    :wacko: Once you see YOUR shirt "hanging" on someone you will wonder why you were so careful!

    Every body is different and has different bulges and bumps....the shirts will conform to what they are covering.

    Centering is probably more important......

    AND if you are making multiples they should all be approximately in the same position.

    :) Just my 2 cents............Sue2
