Here's one of the patches I did. We have one for each of the handlers, dogs, and my daughter.
It's quite easy to make your own, if you have the graphics.
Cheers,
Allen

Making shirts without losing yours
Graham!
A fine name, as it is mine, too and my Mother's family.
On t-shirts, check out http://www.cafepress.com.
They are set up specifically as a no-investment merchandise provider. You upload your design, set up which items you want to offer, and they are made as the customers order them. Check out my shop at http://www.cafeshops.com/gibnet. You might see something you like!
The Hitch: all items have the design heat-transferred on. This means only white garments, and white or light colored items. There is no way the CafePress shirt designs will last as long as a screen-printed shirt.
While the prices ain't cheap, they're not bank-breaking either, and there's no up-front money involved.
Just my teu cents,
-G

Thanks for all the tips.
I work in the sign industry as some of you know.
As signwriter I have computerised vinyl cutting equipment and I'm looking at iron on materials for that process. Airbrushing T shirts is another option.
I've ordered some vinyls that are designed for computer cutting and heat transfer.
I'll keep you posted.
Here is my first design:

Hey there Chris, I wish those shirts were for sale that way I could just go out and buy one. Unfortunatly I am stuck making them by hand and it takes awhile to cut out everything with a craft. I used a iron on transfer from "Staples" and my Print Master program to make up the art and lettering. Once printed I cut out everything, then placed it on the shirt and ironned away. Pretty easy but a little time consuming. If you are thinking about doing this make sure you buy the transfers for Dark Shirts, this way you don't have to mirror image things when you print and the transfers are thicker. The dark shirt transfers also look more like silk screen when finished.
Graham you shirt idea looks great! I would love to see what the finished product looks like.

I really like that shirt Hank. How about making on that plays on the NHL and PGA logos but with a guy wearing a kilt.

Graham I love your design! It's the only "RMWK" shirt design that I've seen so far that I know I'd buy in a heartbeat!
Simply excellent!

Thanks Dakotan, if I ever get them produced in quantity, I'll let you know, or if you want the design, you're welcome to use it.
