A few weeks ago I reported on a young man who has taken a Epson C88 ink jet printer and converted it to print directly to a t-shirt. You can watch the latest video of his contraption in operation here.
Since then, he has been hard at work developing a set of photographs and instructions documenting the steps necessary to create this inexpensive direct to garment printer. He has also created diydtg.com, a website and forum where you can download plans and ask any questions you might have about the project.
If your mechanically inclined and are searching for a way to make your own ink jet t-shirt printer, this site will give you a wealth of information to get you started.
