Default familiar with silkscreeningsupplies.com?

Hi,
I run an non profit org in Miami that works with gang members. I am looking to start a side venture that will help support our programs. I have come across thie website below and am considering purchasing the Premier Screen Shop Setup w/ 6 Color 4 Station Press for $6,695.00. It comes with a Riley Hopkins press with "Joy Stick" registration and a bunch of other stuff. I have no idea what I'm doing but I'd like a kit that comes with what I need. Can anyone help me to determine if this is a good company, a good press, and if the materials it comes with are indeed what I need to start up?

http://www.silkscreeningsupplies.com...product/prem64

If not, can anyone recommend a start up kit?
THANK YOU!!

There in lies the real issue.....Before you can take ANYBODIES advice on what to purchase, you owe it to yourself and whoever else will be financially obligated to do some homework and research the process. While I am am not saying one way or the other about the package , or the company your looking at making this purchase from, its been my experience (**** years) that most people 75%+ who buy printing equipment say they wish they had done more research and made better purchasing decisions a year later.

Definitely take some time go on youtube and watch some vids. You'll learn a lot about the process and as far as equipment unless your planning on pumping out a ton of shirts check out used presses and dryers. I paid $1000 for my first set up and it worked out fine for me for 2 years. I wouldn't drop a ton of money into something you dont even know if your going to like.
