I wouldn't think that was even possible. Good one Aaron. Thanks for sharing.

Thought some of you might enjoy this. Rod and Sharon are here for a
friendly visit (havent got the bill yet so its still friendly) and Rod found
where I have been storing my Dark Green thread. There must have been half a
spool wrapped up in the cam of the machine. Here are some pics.

Hey Roland!! Debbie here! What tees are 7oz. besides Port Authority and
Gildan? I have searched for a really heavyweight tee (even though many of
them call their shirt a heavyweight, they aren't). Thanks!!!!!

Because teeshirts are the absolute worst garbage material you can think
of embroidering on...most shops won't even touch them.
You need several layers of 3 oz. backing just to get a stable base...
standard teeshirts are only 5.5 to 6.5 oz. material, decent 100% cotton
heavyweights might be 7 oz., and some of the real good premium weight
shirts can be 8 oz.
But it is not a pique knit or poplin, heavy weave material-it's a
lightweight
fabric that just isn't made for embroidery.
You have to back off on density-the needle is making the holes, the thread
is
tightening up and exposing it-and the material
itself will rip easily, very very easily, so after you've punched a hundred
holes
in a half inch area for embroidery-then the thread tightens up and pulls it
in...
instant hole!
I won't do teeshirts. Period!
Just not worth embroidering on anything that costs LESS than the thread
price to sew on it.
The only way around it is a ton of backing-then it looks and feels like you
have a patch sewn on the inside of the shirt and is very noticeable.
My opinion...
