Hi!

My name is Fred from Melbourne FL USA.

Retired from the Marine Corps got into printing heat transfers in 1987 and been at it ever since. Started with a mimeograph machine, then copier and now inkjet.

Loved heat transfers so much that I've made How To videos for sub and pigmented inks but with the advent of Facebook I no longer sell the DVD's.

I mainly sell on Ebay: t-shirts, metal signs, contour cut stickers, towels, wall clocks, etc.. using both sublimation ink (Ricoh SG3110 but maybe upgrading to the Virtuoso 400) and Epson WF-7210 with CIS. I have a Roland GS-24 and tried vinyl lettering but it was boring and I couldn't compete against people selling so cheap on EBay so I do mostly contour cut stickers and 2-3 color vinyl decals.

I would love to share what little I've learned these past 32 years with you if you wish. I have nothing to sell, do not wish to buy anything, just here to see if I can help answer any questions you may have and share what I've learned both in printing the various types of heat transfers and selling online, mainly Ebay.

Thank you,

Fred
