Screen Printing

[semiradgyrl.livejournal.com]

i was wondering if any of you know of any local/indie businesses that do silk screen printing on apparel in the area?
i am looking to collaborate with an indie business that is preferably local in a business a friend of mine and i are creating... and need access to someone that can transfer graphics/logos onto apparel in a custom manner...
anyone know of anyone decent?
can you give me websites?
the only one i have seen so far is:
www.cafepress.com
and i'm not really impressed with them...
any sugesstions?
thanks.

You want indie? Go to http://apo.mit.edu and see who is in charge of silkscreening these days. (APO is a community service fraternity, and MIT's chapter has silkscreening equipment and is usually happy to have an excuse to use it. They might not be able to help you immediately at this time of year, but then again I know a lot of them are around over the summer.)

thanks

the link you provided was an online books registration page... do you have any other contact info for that group? also it would be an ongoing job, not just one order.. could they really do a job like that being that they are in school and have other commitments? thanks again.

Oh. Uh. Sorry, should have checked that link -- that's not what it used to be...Try http://www.mit.edu/~apo/, in particular http://www.mit.edu/~apo/silkscreening.shtml. I'm not sure who's doing silkscreening these days and how they would feel about an ongoing thing; I imagine it depends on how ongoing you mean.
