I've got my hands on a set, now... Haven't had a ton of time to play with it yet, but I am looking forward to printing a couple hundred shirts, this weekend! The boards are really handy (I love the handle on top, and how the shirts sort of "auto level" when you load them), and all the pieces arrived very well packed, and all seem to be professionally made. I took some pictures; hopefully, I will have some time in the next few days to post them!

This looks kind of interesting, why do you have to call for pricing though? Has anyone bought it yet, if so, how much was it?

Feel free to answer a direct question that was asked about your specific product. We just want to avoid the sales pitchy type stuff when people start promoting their own stuff in posts

Nothing wrong with giving straight answers to questions though.

If you are in the information giving mood I am interested in the price of your 12 to 6 platen and what upcoming trade shows you will be at.

Not only do I like how quick it can be loaded and unloaded, this design should make it easier to correctly align the shirt for a straight and centered print.

Hi Dennis,
The 12 to 6 platen is $1295.00 complete with art template. Stand and holder. The platen holder is held in place on the Brother 541 or 782 with 4 existing screws. All of our platens fit the brother printer without any mods to the Brother sheet metal or firmware.

Yes sir, this is a plus feature of our LSS. Our reject rate is now very close to zero. This almost pays for the LSS over the first year alone.

I see the platens are for adults, do you have platens for youths, toddlers and infants?
