    How are you drying? uv? heat tunnel? or air drying? Air drying will give off the worst fumes. heat tunnel or conventional conveyor drier if not vented will produce smell. If vented properly will give great results. Easy to vent if your not cause you will need a vacuum table also and can plumb it all in together with a little creativity and have it all vent outside so the noise from the vacuum is not a bother also.  UV conveyor almost not at all. Best i have used that is not a uv cure is inktec. Also Kolorkure is a good ink set.

    What I have used does not smell. There is some out there that are very smelly and bad but there is others out there that are not. This is a political year here and I have done welll over 10000 signs in the last few months. Do them right in my shop and the smell is comparable to running the Mutoh if not actually lighter. Talk to a local rep from a supply house for your area and see what ink set best fits what you are looking to do and where you are looking to do it. Ask mim or her about proper emulsions, thinning and cleanup chemicals also as it is all different from running plastisol or water based inks. 

     

    I think it is super easy to do and a great profiting product to offer your customer base. But do not just go buy ink and give it a whirl without talking to someone with real world experience and a vast knowledge of the products out there.

    I haven't seen any small run alternative. I have considered pulling the stitching so they lay totally flat and sublimating for 100% coverage then restitching

     

    You can buy them unstitched.

     

    Another option is a opaque heat press. Or buy plastisol transfers. For such a small order them 2 would be about your only option

    Still have to mask it, cut them all square. Package. etc. I easily do 50 yards of 24" 751 here a week. Doing one piece or 5 pieces will not show you overall project on a big numbers order like this from my experience with them.

     

    Its like running the thousand piece shirt orders. Yes, you can crank out 100 a hour, but thats pushing it to the max, after your first hour your down to 60, by the fourth hour your down to about 45. then you realize you have to sort all them, that again takes just as long as screening. its goes on like this,

    That slit in the "a" (and the other letters I added one to) are only a liability on

    a junk cutter or with difficult vinyl... otherwise it's a ~one pull~ decal. For me, it is

    Can't keep up with you changing past posts all the time. Work forward man, not backward. Show your progress to a conclusion.

    But anyway at that size what are you little slits, .020 wide even? I would think they would make the weeding more of a nightmare at that size than a blessing. And based off of my experience I would say no way to doing anywhere near 100 a hour as was suggested. I doubt even 1 a min from start to finish over the course of the job. That would be pushing it.
