50

been tweaking little things on the 50 when i get a spare minute every now and then......

t shirts all over the world.....

...
sometimes im freaked out how weird this world is....i've been writing envelopes and customs declarations for the last couple of nights sending t shirts from south america to spain, from england to dearborn michigan, not to mention all the aussie mates....i'm totally humbled.

thankyou to all who have bought a shirt....i know all the boys have been doing it for years and i've got a stack waist high but its just such a thing to know that people will give you money cause they dig what you are doing.

thank you again.....im up to date with all orders til tonight....expect them soon i suppose...

big thanks to my local post office and postmaster BK and his helper GC.....i know what i need to do now.......

mm

my first real T shirts in stock blokes......

......ok, so i've got the BIG CARTEL thingo set up.... you can see it in the side bar at the top, and i've worked out that its really expensive to post shit out of this country...all prices include shipping so i hope its not too expensive for everyone...maybe next time i gotta get only one side printed to keep the cost down a bit....anyway.... i'm sure you will let me know what you reckon.

i can say that the shirts are real nice quality (i bought the good ones) and the printing is A1...not to mention some sick artwork by by man jed.... the machine roboshed on the front and the wind in the face dead man on the back.

i've got small, medium, large and extra large......send me an email at machineshed@bigpond.com if you want me to measure size for you......thanks ay!....
