Hi all,
I am looking to buy myself some kit to start printing mugs from some of my designs, and would appreciate any advice or tips. I have already trawled the forum and so hopefully I have gained some info already.
So what I am thinking of buying is:
Halogen oven (The reason I am veering towards a halogen oven is that I would like to print as close to the handle as possible, and I will not be doing one-offs so will be able to fill the oven.);
80mm mug wraps (from thetransferpress - the clamps on these look fairly easy to use hot?);
Ricoh GXe3300 A4 printer (as I will likely be leaving it idle for some time between batches);
European RN coated mugs;
Trupix paper;
Heat tape;
Mug packaging.
Any thoughts on these would be appreciated - and also is there anything else I have forgotten that I would need to get started? I'd rather get everything I need to start with.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Neil.
