26 years young. Architectural Technician from the UK.

Have spent the last 3 months researching and gathering equipment to start a part time enterprise so that I can hopefully earn some extra £££ on the side to take my girlfriend out and treat her a lot more.

We've just bought our first house together, so money is tight as it is. But I figured you have to spend money to make money. So I am risking it for a chocolate biscuit.

I may have bitten off more than I can chew, but there are four areas I intend to work in. Luckily, I have sourced some freebies people have given away/dumped. That has saved both the world, and my pocket, lol.

Different printers have different roles. I have a tiny Victorian townhouse basement that is my 'office/hq'. Pokey, but it does the job.

CURRENT EQUIPMENT:

Samsung CLP-320 Colour Laser (bought NEW)(non Tshirt use)
Canon IP3600 (bought NEW)(non Tshirt use)

(TO BE TESTED/FIXED)

Epson DX3800 (FREE)(to be used for various sublimation items)
Brother MFC 6490CW (FREE)(to be used for various sublimation items)

Welcome to the forum. Free is always the best price, but then sometimes you get what you "pay" for! I run my business out of my home too. Basement is for screen printing, front bedroom is my office and sublimation printing and vinyl cutting, and the family room is the heat press area. Oh I almost forgot, the living room is the shipping and receiving area!
