I started in the business around 1986 (yes makes me feel very old). Started with basic T shirts, keyrings and designs for drum skins/guitars etc whilst managing bands. Continued into posters and advertising then a few years ago started with vinyls/flocks etc and a heat press and cutter. Carried through into sublimation and got extremely busy. We ended up with three sublimation printers, a small and large cutter and two mug machines. Eventually gave up my 'other job' to print full time. About three years ago we stopped the sublimation to concentrate on the hoodies and clothing and then I landed another business opportunity and had to all but give it up altogether. I have continued T shirts and hoodies etc for a couple of good contacts, friends and family, but now am looking and cranking it back up again and building back up. Staring slowly (due to financial constraints) and seeing what happens from there. However if I win the lottery I will be up and running a lot faster
