have you ever seen a vacuum press being used?:)

bag-wise...Timbuk2 type?... if something is Cordura it shouldn't "ruin" to easy... I've had Cordura shizzle fer years..never wears out sorta thang...current Cahart coat is 5 yrs + and get's seriously abused...I did have a Timbuk2 bag for about 10 years...the abuse that got! but never reeeeeeeeeeeally got ruined....last used it to store chainsaw & Landy tools in...then finally wore out...but was still flourescent pink to the day it died!:D

I meant I don't want to ruin it by using an inkjet transfer print on it. I would have thought a screen print would be better.
