Me and a few partners want to start our own custom hat store. I have been looking at the swf 2 head machine where each head operated independently. Most of our caps will be one off designs so we need to take this into consdieration when buying our machines. What are the best cap/hat machines out there? Swf? Tajima? others? Any help you could give would be great.
Thanks CC
The best is the one you are trained on and have experience with.
Whatever do you expect from a known troll?
It appears that most of the people who frequent this group use home machines, or semi-professional machines..
I have not heard great things about SWF, Renaissance, nor the last offerings from Melco (Amaya).... I have heard good things about Happy and Toyota if you are looking at professional machines. With professional machines, you really need to look at which companies have trained service technicians in your area frequently. Some of the compaines will not provide each location with good service, which would be a big consideration with large machines, as you do not want prolonged downtime due to lack of a repairman.
