WHY I DON'T CUT VINYL ANYMORE

I know it's been a while since I posted a video of my cutting vinyl so I tried to make one for you today but decided not to. This is the truth about why I Don't Cut Vinyl Anymore. Will I ever use my vinyl cutters again? Maybe or maybe notbut for the time being, this is why I am not cutting anymore vinyl.

[@Bobster986]

Unless you’re doing dozens, if not hundreds of shirts a day, a DTG (and embroidery) machine invest would be a big waste of money.

[@adubbproductions]

That’s your opinion but I don’t think so. Even if you are selling 5 shirts a day it still out performs what the bank is giving you with that money sitting there. Actually you can sell 1 shirt a day at $20 bucks and out perform the bank’s intrust rate and make enough to make your payment on the machine if you are financing and buy new ink and still have money left over. How is that a waste of money? Please explain.

[@Bobster986]

@@adubbproductions because the machine needs to run everyday, so if you only sell one shirt a day the ink will eventually dry up or clog the heads and some ink cost hundreds of dollars to replace. But I do like your bank analogy, but you’re better off investing your extra cash in gold and silver, at least you would get your returns back double. Good luck with your gear, I’m sure one day you’ll be able to trade it for food when the economy completely tanks… or not. ☹️

[@adubbproductions]

Wrong. The machine does not need to run everyday. It cycles the ink itself. My machines has sat for two weeks at a time and still works. I’ve went on vacation and forgot to put the cleaning solution in came back and it still works. Your taking from what you heard. Im taking from experience. You obviously don’t have a dtg based off of what you are saying so how can you give advice on something you know nothing about? I started with a single needle embroidery machine now I have three multi needles and a lot more than I choose to show and I invest and it all comes from my machines and i don’t make hundreds of shirts a day or even a week. I sell a moderate amount weekly and it ads up extremely fast. I live it. I’m talking from experience. Everyone on this planet changes shirts daily. (Well almost everyone). I’ll take my chances. It’s worked out wonderfully for years. I’m giving advice and letting you know from what I do and what I’ve come from not hear say. Thanks for watching. I appreciate your point of view. I strongly disagree with this one but we can agree to disagree. When the economy tanks i can still use my gear to sell shirts or what ever else so choose to make and eat from income. I’ve been doing this for years good and bad, pandemic, bad economy people alway want custom stuff. I do it, this is not hear say. So, do you invest in gold and silver or is that just something else you heard? When the economy tanks I bet you I can sell a t shirt and buy a sandwich faster than you can trade your gold and silver wait to get the money from the trade, wait to transfer it to your bank so you can use it. 🤔. Yea. Good luck with that. I’d have sold 50 shirts while your waiting to access your money and paying all the fees involved in trading. Just saying.

[@Bobster986]

@@adubbproductions yes, when it was $400.00 an ounce, now it’s over $2000.00 an ounce. Like you said, way better than the return the bank (you know, the crooks) could ever give, they are the reason the US and the world is in the state that it is. Remember the story when Jesus went into the temple and started wiping the money changers? That’s how long these crooks have been around.

[@adubbproductions]

How long did that take though. I can make that 2k in a week if I have half effort selling merch. I know your gold took way longer than that. If I run an ad or do a pop up merch in hand I can do 2k in a day. Once again. Taking from experience. I used to sell vinyl shirts out of the trunk of my Dodge Charger. I’ve done over 2 in three days. Selling vinyl and sublimation tees from the trunk of my car. Another thing You still don’t get to keep that entire $1600 profit. You pay trading fees on that before you get access any of it. Plus when you take it out that defeats the purpose of investing if you don’t let it compound. I like my method better. I can eat, and invest and buy more equipment and leave my money in my investments to compound.

[@tom69821]

If I could do it myself instead of outsourcing I would use DTF everytime over vinyl, for me at the minute vinyl is convenient for simple jobs until I can afford my own DTF printer

[@cassandrareed5959]

Loving the room of equipments 😍. You’ve outgrown vinyl so it’s understandable. 🧡

[@adubbproductions]

All of my orders are for embroidery or dtg.

[@davidchristensen6908]

Wow, you are Ana amazing businessman , Look at you now your holding your own convention. Sir my hats off to you. I have been watching you channel growth for a long time. When you first started digitizing. The best part is how many people you have brought along with you, how many lives are you partially responsible for making their lives better. You will be at 100 k very soon and the next step will be that 1 million subs. Your right if you see an aspect of your business not as fun or you don’t care doing it anymore, let it go and move on. Enjoy your life doing what you enjoy. What a community leader.

[@leviteapparel]

Bro I feel you man sometimes doing vinyl video is hard cause you got all these machines and do it all color. That's why I only do card designs, glitter, reflective, and glowing the dark With my vinyl cutters

[@lovely31bluprint]

THE DREAM TEAM is A-Dubb Production, Ninja Hustle and Stan Banks. I will be there at Made 2 Hustle in Fort Worth, Texas.

[@iamseelo1]

Holy moly, look at your room and all those machines. Awesome! Anyway, your honesty is what I look forward to. Thank you for being real.

[@annagodfrey4689]

Completely understand!!! As soon as I bought my sublimation printer I was done with vinyl. Now I want a dtg so I can be done with sublimation 😂

[@Resell_crazy]

I'm still on vinyl and embroidery....cant get the fancy stuff until I actually start making money....I need that same deal you got on your machine...lol...that was a steal.

[@ronmayo4041]

You started this video off like a breakup. "I'm sorry It's not you it's me", LOL. Congratulations on growing, Enjoy the journey. Thanks for sharing

[@theresaljones7839]

You have definitely grown (equipment wise) since the first time I started watching you. I remember when you started embroidering and misspelled a cap but you kept it on. LOL

[@adubbproductions]

😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣 I remember that. Hilarious. I started embroidering before that though. Lmao. Good times.

[@samanthahuerls6379]

Nice 👏🏾 👏🏾 can't wait til I move up like this. Thank you for your viynl videos, you helped me so much when I first began.

[@adubbproductions]

No problem. Iight do a few graphtech videos but I just don’t use any of them that often anymore.

[@deablaze6213]

Much respect from Baltimore keep shining ur light keep pushing keep grinding

[@DempsDesigns]

Congratulations on your conference! That's awesome!

[@TheBestUni]

Pack up what ever you don’t want and ship it this way

[@adubbproductions]

I heard that. I shipped my old heat press and cameo to Dominica already though. Even though I don’t use it as much it’s still valuable to have one available.

[@TheBestUni]

@@adubbproductions that was sweet of you

[@adubbproductions]

I don’t give it away. I’m planing to start doing some business over there. 😂😂😂😂.

[@Fabulousis32]

Hello where did you purchase your Teflon cover for your Ricoma heatpress? I have the Ricoma 16 x 20 and need a Teflon cover

[@loverofmusic901]

My goodness!!

[@mystictraveler8642]

What is the best DTG printer? Any recommendations?

[@MikeTees]

How is that _Ricoma_ heat press? i really want one !!!!!!

[@Yshral]

I started off with vinyl then moved to the HP Latex 315 print and cut bundle also I do sublimation too and moved to the epson surecolor f570

[@Mzgoldiemonroe84]

Nice setup... I need BETTER organization and a more space in my life ASAP! Just got my dtf printer yesterday, waiting for the ink to come in. I'm severely sick of and frustrated with vinyl. I'm convinced it's the reason why my eczema is acting up on my hands. I'm not sure yet tho

[@tonamiller8298]

Poor thing. You have outgrown that room.

[@adubbproductions]

😂😂😂😂. Still rocking out in the room. 🤣😩😐 but seriously I’ve been liking for a space. It’s tough where I am and I don’t want to drive far so…. The search continues.

[@dan75robot]

damn that is an awesome shop guy!

[@MikeTees]

thanks for sharing greatly appreciate it !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@kod6426]

Wish i can take on this opportunity to meet you guys but unfortunately i cant. Hopefully in the near future when i get started i can meet you n collab sometime.

[@theresaljones7839]

Hi Allen, why don't you cover the shirt when you take if off the DTG and put it on your press press to "heat dry" it?🤷🏾‍♀️

[@adubbproductions]

The first press is set up to hover above the shirt the second press is when I cover the shirt that presses the ink down.

[@theresaljones7839]

I know you said it hovers but you closed jt.🤷🏾‍♀️

[@adubbproductions]

@@theresaljones7839 I closed it but its not touching its hovering really close. One press is set up to hover close the other is set up to press.

[@ZeeDaAmazing]

Do you have a video threading the em1010?

[@adubbproductions]

I believe I do. Let me check and see. If I don’t I will make one for you.

[@adubbproductions]

I haven’t made a video on threading it yet but hear is one threading the MT-1501. The steps and thread path are exactly the same. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bauzkoGLgbeVjMk

[@ZeeDaAmazing]

@@adubbproductions thank you so much you are an angel!

[@preciouspeaces]

TFS👍🏽

[@adubbproductions]

No problem. TFW.

[@fisshawtv5815]

Do you still deal with sublimation?

[@adubbproductions]

Absolutely. I love sublimation.

[@garrypreston08]

So if your doing dtg why do you need a heat press?

[@adubbproductions]

You need a heat press to pre treat the garments as well as dry the inks.

[@garrypreston08]

Good shout thank you mate!

[@mozezg6957]

Dtg sucks to much prep work.. dtf is the truth..!

[@adubbproductions]

Dtf IS prep work, its not a finished product. Dtg the product is done. Both have their place. I’ve seen those converted dtf printers print. They take forever. Then you gotta put the powder on and shake it forever to make sure all the powder is off then you gotta bake it to crystallize the powder. Agh. That’s not easy my friend. Then if someone ordered 20 shirts you gotta press them onto the shirts. Then wait cause it’s a cold peel. That ain’t it easy. Buying transfers is easy. But then it eats into your profit. Printing a shirt on a dtg printer has its upfront costs but you make more per shirt than you do creating dtf transfers. creating the transfers takes way longer. It’s not time efficient. Dtg start to finish is faster hands down and you make more money per item. Dtf film is expensive and the time it takes to create a dtf transfer is even more expensive. People just love it because it’s a cheaper method to make full color prints. But it’s. It faster by a long shot and it’s definitely not cheaper per print. Pretreat solution + ink + shirt = dtg Ink + dtf film + dtf powder + more time than the above + shirt = dtf. You add it up and tell me who wins in the long run. Dtf ain’t it.

[@LucyLu70]

Oh noooo you out grew vinyl. Look at your work shop.

[@adubbproductions]

Yes, all of my orders are embroidery or dtg.

[@LucyLu70]

@@adubbproductions When are you going to start using the white toner printer? you recently bought your graph tec.
