I see some of the newer heat presses are fitted with a laser guide now for accurate placements.

i saw some of those at the show and thought you can make a stand alone one yourself using a laser pen and a stand - 99p shop will be the place to go

Thank-you all for your informative replies, I have come up with this idea of using a flat piece of wood (b&q £1.19) and have measured in the middle the width of a a4 portrait sheet and then marked ruler measurements in 5mm increments from the middle out so when i line it up i can see when its in the middle without keep turning a normal round trying to measure it.
Regards
Dave

the tee sq is not as handy as the logo it as we had a client that was fussy to say the least about placement and the logo it fitted the job.
