Anyone used one of these ? £229 for the large one, think of all of the space you could save.

Ideal for T-shirt’s but not so much for coasters and jigsaws etc.
not sure it’s something I would buy there’s just too much room for error and how do you regulate pressure?

Oh I am certain it would be of little use for dye sub, but for TShirts with the advancement in garment film it might be worth a punt. I have just pressed up 2 t shirts, for the time it takes for the Geo Knight press to heat up, I could have had them done and packed, I think it will save quite a lot of electric aswell.

Oh yes for T-shirt’s I’m sure you would save a LOT of time and money.
My only concern is how do you control pressure for T-shirt’s and hoodies?
Surely the weight of the machine isn’t enough to press a hoodie or something with a zip or buttons?

I agree Mrs Maggot, I have a Geo Knight too and I love it but if I was doing just vinyl T-shirts and Totes etc. I'd definitely consider it

Put your wallet on top of it...:biggrin:

I can see some uses for printing one or two items - maybe on the road or for late in the day customers. Good for that last minute ebay customer who orders 10 mins before last orders....
