Produce custom t-shirts with a heat press:
When you start producing your own t-shirts, you'll likely start with a simple manual screen printing setup, or invest in a vinyl cutter and heat press, With the incredible range of interesting and eye-catching vinyls available, it's easy to see why many people opt to make t-shirts with a heat press. And the best part is that the process is simple (and fun):
DESIGN A T-SHIRT
When you know what you want printed on the t-shirt, that's the easy part. The hard part is finding t-shirt designs that other people will want to buy.
PREPARE THE VINYL
You can cut the vinyl using a cutting machine, or even print it beforehand using a printer/cutter. Then simply remove the excess and lift the design using the transfer tape.
SQUEEZE
Place the design on the t-shirt, then use a heat press to secure it in place. All vinyls are different, but they should come with instructions regarding pressing times and temperatures.
