I have started checking out tee shirt printers on the internet. It looks like there are some with reasonable prices, where we can order a variety of colors in all heavyweight cotton. I'll have to pick one by price/ color assortment/permit vee necks/large sizes/reasonable/no setup and delivery charges. Some go up to size 2X, other 3X, one had 4X. The large sizes usually cost a little more. How big do we have to go? You can PM me about large sizes, if you don't want to post that info.

We will only order colored tees for which someone has DEFINITELY COMMITTED TO BUY IT, as last time. We will probably get some navy shirts to keep around in the missing sizes, but not other colors. We will not lay out money to have 6 sizes in 5 colors (30 shirts) and then not sell two thirds of them.

Before we go ahead with this, we will need definite commitments from enough people. I will need your size (unisex/male sizes), color5 choices (first and second, maybe third, with range of color - say forest or kelly green, but not olive or lime green), US vs UK vs other location, and eventually, full mailing address. DO NOT POST YOUR MAILING ADDRESS. Use PMs for any sensitive info. Also put in your reservations for navy shirts. Price breaks usually happen around 36 shirts and again at 48. Profit goes to mudcat. We have been using a turquoise ink, which works well on light and dark shirts, but not in medium colored shirts. There can be only one ink color, or the price goes up significantly. The shirts have been selling for $15.

I will talk to Bill Sables about shirts in the UK. Last time we brought a bunch of shirts with us when we went over that summer, but we are not going to the UK this summer, so we will explore printing on both sides of the pond, which will mean more orders will be necessary to go ahead.

So start placing your orders.
