I too hope I am not stepping on anyones toes but... I have a brother who does
silk screened tshirt (www.gridlock.com). I could twist his arm and get him to
do the shirts at very little (or no expected) cost to lugnet.
I hope I can help. I remember this community from the rec.toys,lego days and
have found lugnet to be an extremely valuable source of enjoyment as well as the
number one lego resource on the net. My two boys are now 4 and 7 and I finally
have the time to get a bit more involved. I hope that I can.
Happy lego
David Bail
