Default Starting a Business..?

Hi after seeing a vinyl cutter at school cutting a fabric then it being put on a shirt, I think that i want to start a business.

I have a few questions.

-------> I want to also be able to cut vinyl along with cutting materials to put on shirts. What is a good printer that can do both?

-------> What is the type of material that is able to be put on tshirts? I heard it was called thermaflex but i googled it and not much came up

-------> What size printer should I get? I was thinking a 24-25 or a 34-35 but I dont want to have one thats too small or one thats too big because I'd be wasting vinyl.

-------> Is this that profitable?

-------> Where am i able to buy cheap vinyl + the material to put on shirts? My school sells vinyl for 50 cent a foot im wondering if thats good in the long run.

A bit of information, Id like to make lots of money doing this in my own home, so I can buy some nice stuff.. but im also willing to work long hours and spend time learning.

At the moment I have about $850 to get started, Ive seen some cutters on EBAY for about $400. I dont understand how a 24-25 can be the same price as a 34-35.

Thank you
