well I finally took a few pictures today and did my first t-shirt vinyl with the new plotter that i won from the contest here....
The Plotter has to be somewhat close to my computer so that really narrowed down where it could go.. So its on an old desk that i covered with vinyl right in the office area of the shop..
I also made a work shirt for me.. using blue vinyl with a gold vinyl trim.... I had gotten both of these colors with the plotter. I just did the company name in Varsity font and i really love the gold outline..
the spectra cut was easy to weed once i figured out its differant than weeding sign vinyl..
The vinyl pressed on like a charm using the directions from the Imprintables warehouse site.. no problems at all..
Im gonna add "got sign" to the front of the shirt tommorow for a pocket logo..

lol Lou.. that is the office part of the shop.. and its not as neat as it needs to be.. But actual work area part where we lay the vinyl and do the heat pressing.. banners etc.. can get really bad.. its a constant job too kepp it presentable.. most of our shop is visable to the customers when they come in.. (altho sectioned off so they cant get back to the equipment or work tables without going thru a little gate thingie).. so we have to at least try to keep it need.. I have 2 big work tables one is 4 x 16 and one is 4 x 24 feet lol.. and sometimes i have a hard time findng room to work.. hehe..

The shirt looks great! I also like what you did with the desk...why buy something new if what you have works. Now if I could just get one of those plotters soon!
