A friend has a screen printing business and has asked me if I wanted to join her business by offering an embroidery business. I have no experience in embroidery. I have been looking at a Toyota embroidery machine for around $14,000, it has Forte' software. If you have experience with this type of machine or any other, I would interested in hearing your opinion on this machine and the software.

I appreciate your input.

You should go for Brudan. Its the best machine.

I agree with the statement above. Barudan is the best out there.

What else comes with the machine for $14,000 ? I would contact a sels rep for Barudan and get a quote. I would say that they would be close to the Toyota price.

If you need a contact, I can get you one.

Thanks for the info. I have contacted the Barudan rep and working on pricing. It looks like the price will be competitive.
