Thanks Ann...

A friend who is a lawyer telephoned me tonight. While discussing making
T-shirts she told me that she has a friend who used to professionally make
T-Shirts and they still have the equipment for silk screening. But they no
longer use it.
(Isn't God Awesome)
She gave me his telephone number and told me to call him. If nothing else
he can teach. But.... perhaps he will just sell me his equipment as well
:-)

I just want to print on material... but I want to do large quantities. ie;
30-40 shirts a time.

Yet... I am still interested in airbrushing....

Thanks :-)
