From your original question it was a bit unclear what type of startup kit you were looking for (what printing method, etc).
Maybe your find will help others in a similar situation  | |  | |  | |
Rodney, here is what i will probably be using...
http://www.silkscreeningsupplies.com...4/product/1008
i am going to be selling simple bold letter print desings stretching across the chest with a small border around the letters, using spot printing techniques. there will be one base color word desings, and a few one color word designs with a border spaced out from the main letters a bit in a different color.
i will also be making about 6-10 different versions of designs eventually, but will save & reuse every design i make.
there will be no butting of colors (atleast not until i get better at printing) even then, the most complex design i will have will be a three color design going horizontal ( like the irish flag, or asomething).
my target market will be mixed martial arts folks, bikers, extreme sportists, skaters, hot girls, colleges, nighclubs, independently owned chopper shops, tattoo shops, head shops, myspace, a really good web design, innovative marketing using some girls from the adult industry who are famous, and some good link trades along with some really good S.E.O.
to start, i want a machine that i can fit in my apartment, it only need be a 3 color press, and i will print the shirts as i need them. i will be saving every design i create, and will make only about 6-10 designs total. this set up says it can do 40-120 shirts per hour. i figure being new at this, and the fact that i will be doing lots of double flashing because alot of the shirts will be black, so im guessing i can do 25 shirts per hour. i will also be doing ballcaps, hoodies, and long sleeve t's, all with the same logos...
