I want to know if one can make his/her transformer sheets and if yes do you know with what kind of equipment and how much ? thnx
I’m not aware of it… Sorry
Hi, I live in the uk n wud love to start up my own business doing this. Can u give me a rough idea of the cost just to get me up n running please?
Heat press: anywhere from $500 – $1,500 USD
Custom Transfers: anywhere from $1,000 – $2,500 depending on number of designs, number of colors in designs, quantity you purchase
Getting designs created: anywhere from $200 – $1,000 — depending on designs and designers…
All of these costs are relative to what you’re getting done and the method you plan to use. I can’t really provide you any numbers, you’ll have to break down the info we provide and come up with the numbers yourself because I have no idea what you’re doing.
If you haven’t already signed up for our free course, I’d encourage you to do so.

What size of Heat Press do people normally purchase?
The best size to use is the 16×20. Purchasing anything smaller you’ll limited in the size of items you can print. Which usually results in having to purchase the 16×20 heatpress.
We have a source list available for purchase. The source list includes various companies to purchase custom, and pre-made transfers. There are vendors that do ship outside the US. As well as blank t-shirts at wholesale cost.
The price for custom transfers will be determined by the amount of colors you have in your design. If you are on a tight budget then I would recommend no more than 2 colors in the design. The more colors in the design the more it will cost to have the designs screen printed onto the release paper.
If you would, please click the link below to purchase the source list.

hi i wanted to get a full t shirt printing size heat press can you tell me which size i will need
thank you
Hi Soyf,
The size we recommend is at least 16×20. There are no limitations on the size of items you wish to print. Anything less than 16×20 you may have some issues due to the items being too big.
I’m not understanding your question… Could u rephrase it and I’ll be glad to answer. Thanks!

I’ve been printing/selling tees since 1999 (13 years). It’s a very profitable business — especially if you pick a niche and focus in on that. Most people try and sell all types of tees to anyone and everyone — that’s a BIG mistake. Pick a niche and hone in on it…
It’s a very profitable venture — I’ve seen many come in and make absolutely nothing and I’ve seen others come in with one great idea or just one t-shirt and make a killing.
My goal this year is to move over 100,000 tees — keep in mind, my niche is church fundraisers where we wholesale to them — they generally order in bulk (anywhere from 25 tees to as many as 1,000 per order). It doesn’t take many orders to move 100,000 tees.
Pick a niche and prosper
My sister and my brother both have talked to me about starting a tshirt business and I was hesitant about doing this but after watching all of videos I am going to move forward on this, My sister wants to do motivating and spiritual shirt and my brother wants to do hiphop shirts and I would like to do baby shirts. what do you think?
I think it’s a great idea… This is one of the funnest and easiest businesses to get into. It will definitely require lots of work and time spent to make it work, but the payoffs can be great!
So do you think it’s a good idea for the 3 of us to do the business together even tho we all have different niches’?
That’s a decision that only you can make
If you go that route, just lay everything out in an agreement/contract and whenever there are disputes, refer back to the contract/agreement.
Partnerships can work out great, and some end in disaster
You’re absolutely right… Live your life on your terms. Go for it!
About 385 F… The transfers will usually come with instructions telling you how high to set your temp
If you live in the United States, get 110v, because that’s what comes out of our walls. Other places (like Europe) use 220v and some use 110v.
They don’t ship to Singapore — sorry. We can ship you the transfer paper (for printer use).
You can put a teflon sheet over the design to protect it from sticking to the heated platen and messing up the shirt… But you can only add to a part of the shirt that doesn’t have a ‘design’ on it — it must be a blank area.
I haven’t had the best experience with those machines. However, if that’s all you can afford than get what you can to get started. However, you should replace the machine as soon as you are able to.
We do recommend the following heat press machines that are located in the link below.
http://www.tshirtriches.com/heat-press-machine/
You may try looking on ebay for sellers who will ship to you.
Any descent color printer will work. If that’s what they recommend, I would at least give it a try.
Hi Scott,
It’s the type of transfer paper you are using. However, we still strongly stand behind having your designs screen printed onto the transfer paper for a better quality.
The transfers I did has recently made videos of regarding printing from a printer. These are much better than the ones you can purchase at local stores. In fact, these transfers can not be purchased at any store. Yes, these transfers hold up a lot better than the ones you can purchase from a local store and they will last a longer!
However, if you want quality and want long lasting shirts have the designs screen printed onto the special release paper. We continue to stand by having your designs screen printed onto the transfer paper. I have many shirts that are over 3+ years old minus some bleach stains here and there but the shirts have held up well and they still look good!
I decided to look in this route for individuals that are not able to have their designs screen printed onto the special transfer paper due to the start up phases they are in and the cost that is involved. Again, we do recommend as soon as your business is able to pay to have your designs screen printed onto the special transfer paper, do it!
See here, the link below….

This is a great way for folks to get started with their tshirt business and provide descent shirts to their customers verses selling shirts that were made by transfers purchased at an local store. You see, what happens when you use the transfers that are purchased at local stores. The customer only get a few wears out of the shirt and decides not to do business with you again because of the poor quality you offer.
I can’t stress this enough this is a great way to get started for those we can not afford to have their designs screen printed. The over all best result would be; have the designs screen printed onto the special transfer paper instead of using a printer.
You’ll need to save the image in a software “preferably” photoshop or similiar and open the file up to print.
What we understand the laser will be the better printer.
The heat press you mentioned is a very good machine and will definitely hope up.

It’s a great machine… Get it
You’ll probably have a difficult time getting a heat press shipped there from the United States, but you should be able to get pretty much anything else.
You know anything about the “Gecko” brand
It’s an okay machine… Great to start with if you’re on a budget. Should get you through your first 1-2 years.
The 16×20 heat press is all I need to start? That is the one for $1050.99?
Hi Sarah,
Yes, we recommend the 16×20 heat press machine. You may try looking on ebay for a machines within your budget. Please know the machines on ebay are starter machines that are good enough to get started. You’ll find yourself replacing the machine in no time. Again, it’ll be good to get started with. The machines we have listed on our website are highly recommend and are durable machines that will last!

My questions to you is have you ever heard of or used a Vesta heat press? And what is the difference between a Sublimation Heat Transfer Press Machine and regular heat press machine?
Never heard of Vesta, but it looks like a darn good looking machine! Sublimation and heat press machine is the same type of machine.
Hi, quick question!
What kind of printer/ink do i need to print transfer paper? Is this a special machine? Or will the tshirt presser just work with transfer paper that was printed form a regular printer/computer???
