Default Some Of My First Work.....

Maybe...sorta...kinda...I think I'm getting the hang of this!

I've been pressing for about 2 weeks now. I'm using a Geo Knight DK20S Swinger, a DK7 Cap Press, and ImageClip paper. I'm just hatching out of the egg, but I've got both feet on the ground and I'm running!

Wish me luck, Gang...and THANKS to Ross (rrc62), Lou (badalou), and everybody else whose help and advice kept my spirits and enthusiasm up there! Without them, I'd be slobbering on a street corner somewhere with my pants on backwards and shoes on the wrong feet!

The sleeveless tee in the photos is a Jerzees 100% Heavyweight Cotton. I've also been pressing on Gilden 50/50's. They both turn out great, and wash well too!

Believe me, I have! And I do! However...I must say I'm a Captain Morgan man myself.
