Question New to the trade

Hi everyone I'm Lauren and I'm considering starting my own business. The thing is I will be doing horse apparel (saddle pads to be exact) for now. I'm wondering what kind of machine would be best suitable to put designs in the fabric that can reach the whole space. I am also looking for a good starting budget. Any suggestions?

We do horse blankets in our store at least once a week. I would for a full size commercial machine and not a compact. you will need a machine that is built to handle tough items and room to have the blanket attached. Also, you will not be able to hoop horse blankets so I would recommend looking at a clamping system also.

machines, well,... the easiest to get up to speed on is the Melco Amaya XT. I find its much easier for my employees to learn and get up to speed. They tend to have trouble learning the more tradiional machines in my store. If its a traditional style mahcine you want, Tajima and Baurandan are probably my top two favs.
