Hi to Everyone

I have done a lot of printing in the past for my own business.

Large Format using Encads was the first learning curve and then a converted rock hopper solvent. I learned the hard way about dried up print heads.

Moved to a Gerber Edge which I still have 2 of and a graphtec plotter for vinyl.

Started mug sub which moved onto flat press for staff uniforms and led to all sorts of sub things

Sadly when I sold the business I stopped but kept most of my equipment,.

2 years on and I am playing around again, The good ole edge worked straight away for stickers and signs and I dragged out my old mug stock for some tests,

Just purchased a 3d oven and some phone blanks and other stuff so its testing time this weekend,

I will be scanning the threads for times and heats etc so maybe a few questions but mostly learning and destroying to start with lol,

Picked up quite a bit of knowledge over the years so hopefully I also may be some help to others.

Look forward to starting again

Thanks

Matt
