On The Job

So I've been looking out for screen-printing companies over the past couple of weeks for my first release of t-shirts. I've mostly been browsing these companies on the internet. A couple of days ago however, I decided to stop by one of the more professional looking companies. The man at the screen-printing workshop explained to me all about the different printing processes available. I showed him my designs for the t-shirts, and he crunched some numbers for me, and I'm happy to day they fit comfortably under my expected production costs.












I was interested in two of the processes. The first was the normal screen-printing. It was a little more expensive, but could provide any colour prints I needed. There was also the heat transfer option. This was the process I actually intended for my shirts. It had a smooth finish that felt like plastic on the t-shirt. This was actually cheaper than the other option, however, the colour selection was very limited, and not right for my t-shirts.











So, I'm going to keep looking around. Hopefully I can find a company that offers the heat transfer option in the right colours. If not, I'll have to go with the screen-printing.























After our meeting, I took the bus home. I was actually the only one on the bus when I got in.











































So I decided, I would pull my 150-watt boom box radio out of my back pocket in the bus to listen to some jams. But then I saw the sign...no radios. Dam those tricky signs. Who would of known we weren't allowed to bring radios onto the bus.
