You have some pretty interesting inventions on your site, I enjoyed looking at them especially the boats. I think your idea with the safety hook and blade is right on, I'm not sure how I can help you in the manufacturing process for this however. I'm surprised that you haven't already added a heat press to your business, you could easily be cutting CAD-CUT materials and making custom shirts and more if you had a heat press. You already have the production techniques down it seems. Good luck with your inventions and I hope you are able to make an investment in a heat press soon. You already understand the benefits due to your space limitations and heat printing doesn't have the enviornmental issues (clean up, etc...) that you would have to deal with with screenprinting.

The shop area is less than 15 x 45 sq. ft. and so turned down a free multi-station t-shirt screenprinting machine due to its size. Am planning to add a T-shirt heat press eventually. But recently, have been busy with other projects, and would like to ask your opinion, Ted; if the 12th item down (video) on my website is applicable toward the computer cut hotpress material. It is a safety hook and blade which i now use every day. Am looking for someone to manufacture it.

And some people don't believe that heat printing is durable! I believe someone from Stahls' ID Direct has contacted you and I wish you all the best in your idea with your line of beachwear. Your art is fantastic and so colorful. Maybe CADPrintz, our digital full color transfers will be an option. Again, good luck and thanks for reading.

You can see my work by visiting www.danielcascardo.com. I am very excited about the innovative capabilities for the decorative apparel industry and how Stahl's is at the front of the pack. I have had the opportunity to use your puff ink transfers over 25 years ago and still have t-shirts with the image in great shape. Today, I write to you in search of information. I am starting a line of beachwear that will be primarily internet based sales, with customization using my unique style of art. I am looking for someone I can talk to face to face in helping me to partner with a local supplier utilizing the latest in what your company has to offer. Please e-mail or call (248) 885-0028 if you can help me out. Sincerely, Daniel Hi Ted,
