Default I want to make a DTG printer!

Hi. I am hoping the support of this forum can help me get started on making my own Direct to Garment Printer.

There is so much information out there about this subject, but I am requesting that you guys fill me in on what you have found that works!

I realize there are many different ways to do this, but if everyone who has made one can tell their story, I think it would help to narrow down the options!

I appreciate it and look forward to what everyone says!

I saw the thread that was posted for you to check out and boy is it LONG!! Did you get the condensed version or figure it out?

Thanks.

Well, I was trying to touch into the subject to see if it would be something I could do but I kind of moved on from the idea because I just don't have the time to read through 102 pages.

I read through some of it, and you might like to know that there's a Yahoo forum with the plans -- I haven't looked at them yet, but they're free.

You have to joing the group to get the plans, but that's pretty easy.

Good luck!
