Was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction to find info. about starting a silk screening Business.
I am a graphic designer in Michigan and am looking to start a business in my basement. I do TONS of designs for clients and figure instead of paying someone else to do the printing I could become an all in one operation. We have a local screen business that is difficult to work with - so local businesses are anxious for something new! ANY info. (costs, equipment, advice, etc.) would be GREATLY appreciated! |
