Question What Type of Stand Do You Use for Your DTG Printer?

Hi, I’m in the process of purchasing an HM-1 printer and need a stand for it. Its 35” x 27” and I cannot find any type of sturdy table or desk that is big enough and under $400. The closest I have found is this table-like thing at Staples but it seems a little shaky. What is everyone using to hold their DTG printer? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Ryan

We have a t-jet3 and we are using a stainless steel 48x30 table 36" height.

We also own a restaurant, so I bought it from a restaurant supply company.

It's very sturdy and it was way under $400.

You can probably find one on eBay.

Mine was made at the local welding shop.
Guy did a great job. It's heavy enough so it sits very solid, I have storage racks underneath and it has a high gloss black paint job.

Cost - $125.00

Try Sam's Club. We put our Kioisk on a rolling workbench and it just fits on it.

Look at IKEA they have a utility type table, butcher block top and about 16 small drawers. We use them for large format printers, 24 inch and larger.
Its a real tank, and the drawers do come in handy.
Take Care, Bill

I as well got a free stand with my flexi.
Mine is a little smaller than yours though.
It even has a platform across the bottom.

Im not opposed to goodwill or salvation army. I got a huge desk (made out of real wood) for $50.

We purchased our table from Sams club also, the tables are VERY sturdy and ink cleans up very easily.
