Shot Glasses

Hi,

I've been sublimating coffee mugs for a couple years now on a small scale, mostly wholesale, but am now thinking about adding shot glasses to my arsenal. Does anyone else have experience with shot glasses? I realize it woud entail spending a couple hundred dollars on additional equipment, but am thinking about testing the waters.

Shot glasses can be a big seller. You will need to use wraps, as they can't go into a press.

We did a post a while back on how to sublimate a shot glass.

Other than the wraps, there isn't a lot of special equipment you need.

I will also need a convection oven. I did get a sample of a printed one from a distributor of the blanks and will be showing that one around and trying to get orders, before I spend any more money.

Yes, an oven of some kind would be helpful. A toaster oven would do.
