So, it turns out you can 3d print RIGHT ON CLOTHING! NEAT!
Hello #PRINTERNETS!
This is the SPAM! logo from the bag that I printed in the last episode which is the full how-to for printing on shirts and cloth.
After a bunch of trial and error, I've worked out the process!
3 first layers, at the least
Low heat
Lower layer height than .25
Use Avery Label Sheet

Pretty much, any sticker sheet works. I tried 3 types.)
Cut out a sheet that is the size of the build plate.
Stick the sheet on the back side of the cloth.
Clip down the cloth (sheet side under) on all 4 corners, being sure that it is flat.
Re-level your build plate so that the nozzle just touches the cloth.
I have no idea how well it will stand up to the washing machine. (I suggest using fabric glue.)
As usual, here is the build video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o90CNL4oyJ0
See you next time!
