Tony From Hampshire here, my background is graphic design and IT amongst many other things, but can't wait to get started in this business, with only a few million products to choose from to get me started it should be a fun journey, but really hoping to make a living in this business, wish me luck I think I may just need it.

Regards
Tony

Hi Janners and thank you for the welcome, I think Sublimation has already started to take over my life, currently doing about 18 hours a day of research, well for the last few weeks anyway, I had no idea there was so much to learn and I fear that I have only seen the tip of the iceberg, what have I let myself in for !!

Hi Chris, nice to hear from you, you are not kidding there is just so much to learn, I am right at the beginning more or less have been researching solid for weeks on every aspect of this industry and have barely scraped the surface, I have started buying equipment but still loads more to get, not ordered my press yet, it has been a tough decision choosing which one to buy, but have finally decided to go with the Hotronix fusion, how far along this road are you ? I am on the outskirts of Basingstoke, where are you based.

I'm a couple of weeks in after doing my initial research. I'm going down the mugpress route and was really lucky to find an adkins on eBay!! Not having great luck with my products yet though. I've set up colour profiles etc but the quality just isn't as good as I want...massive learning curve!!! Whaaaaaaa! Good luck! :)
