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.

I agree, they are the best in the business. I am sorry to hear that you have to stay on the line for one hour to get your problems solved! You definately should try Cadworxlive.com, I think you will find it a huge improvement over Drawmate 10, which is why we developed it....we want you to be able to take care of your artwork needs without having to spend your valuable time on the phone getting help. Also, about the wall clings, there is a video on Great Garment Graphics, www.greatgarmentgraphics.com that talks about creating Wall Art and you should be able to get some good information on that there. Thank you again for being such a loyal Stahls' customer. Good luck with your business! Hi Joan,

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.

While we don't do anything like that at <a href="http://www.surgepromotions" rel="nofollow">Surge Promotions</a>, we do participate in a little rivalry with our day to day sales.

For over 25 years I've been buying your products, and I've wanted to tell you for a long time how super your service has been. Whether I come to pick up something at your SCS facility, or I call tech support and keep them on the line for an hour, everyone is so kind and helpful I'm amazed. In all this time not one person has acted impatient or frustrated. I still use Drawmate 10 and can't seem to get along without it. Is Cadworx just as good? I hate to lose the easy team printing that is part of it. Another question--you've asked for ideas on what we would like to see. Is there any cuttable signage that would come off easily? I'm not sure if it would be possible, but I see these sayings on walls and store windows all the time, and they even sell something called "Wallies". It would be fun to be able to cut shapes for babies' rooms, for holidays, for birthday parties, etc. that could come off easily (without a razor blade). We could take shapes and graphics right out of the baby comforters, adult comforters, etc., and decorate without wallpaper. Is there such a thing, or could you make it? I have really enjoyed being a Stahls customer. Your people are super, and so are you! Joan Sweats 'n' Stuff Customer # 039991 Hi, Ted,
