kinda like a take on the 'not of this world' thing..yes?

Posted

Yeah.

"Catholic versus the sin and materialism of the world" didn't fit as good.

Posted

oh yes, i can see why you did it the way you did it.

genius, if you ask me.

Just out of curiosity, what is your margin like on all your shirts?

Posted

you need to explain the difference between mark up and margin to him, i think..

Would be cool if it had the verse on the back:

[url="http://bible.cc/1_john/2-15.htm"][b]15[/b][/url] Do not love the world nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. [url="http://bible.cc/1_john/2-16.htm"][b]16[/b][/url]For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world. [url="http://bible.cc/1_john/2-17.htm"][b]17[/b][/url]The world is passing away, and also its lusts; but the one who does the will of God lives forever. [i]1 John 2 [/i]

Or part of it, anyway.

For the average shirt design, what is the difference between your selling price and the cost per shirt?

Posted

it's around 60%

assuming

the set up time for the screen lasts for at least 100 shirts
and
scrap rate at 5% (he's a rather sloppy screener)

Posted

The cost of a shirt is around $2.71 before shipping
A gallon of ink is around $65 a gallon
The screen per design is around $18
The conveyor dryer cost me $1500
The press cost me around $1200

I do all the labor myself.

The shirts cost $14.

Is that enough info for you to figure it out?

Posted

also assuming the cost of setting up the screen is roughly $30.

not taking his time into account..

cause if he worked for me, i would pay him $0.05/hr

Posted

how long does it take you to set up the screen?

More or less. It gives me a better idea. How many shirts does a gallon of ink usually last you?

I read it more as "Catholics vs. the evils of the world" and not "Catholics vs. the other residents of the world."
[/quote]

After I thought about it, I read the T-shirt that way, too. I simply thought I'd bring up that some non-Catholics might not think of reading it that way, and it could be a turnoff. It's not a reason not to wear or buy the T-shirt, just a possible issue.

scrap would be higher.. i was only assuming shirt scrap.. he's rather wasteful with the inks too... so 5% material scrap on the shirt, 7% material scrap on the ink, and well labor scrap I really don't care.. it's 5 cents/hour.. call it rounding error....
