Default Smallest Screen Printer

What would be the smallest screen printing contraption? I really don't mind only doing 2 or 3 colors either. I'm just trying to increase my profit margins on these orders of 20-50 shirts 1-3 colors that I get. That seems to be my main business. I don't have much room at the shop but planned on setting it up at home.

Thanks
Chase

So let me get this correct, as I may be reading this wrong?

You have a printing shop already, but you wish to set up another printing setup at home to do small orders?

If I am correctly reading this I would say don't waste any money on a cheesy hobby "all in one" unit for small order. Just learn to price those smaller orders accordingly so that you get a fair profit for the time involved.
