From single pieces to full crew runs, Cylinder gets printed in full color gear with honest pricing and a 5 to 7 day door-to-door timeline.
Cylinder crews order printed in full color gear from us because the numbers are public and the process is simple: free design help, a written proof within 24 hours, and delivery to any Cylinder address in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Cylinder at a community of 85 on 0.1 square miles of Iowa, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Rodman, IA (5 mi), Whittemore, IA (7 mi), Emmetsburg, IA (7 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. For the military community, Camp Dodge sits about 105 miles away, well inside our normal unit-order routes.
No storefront visit required. Send a rough idea or finished art, a real designer builds the proof at no charge, and the finished gear ships straight to Cylinder.
A typical week of dtg and dtf printing orders from this corner of Iowa mixes Cylinder crews with neighbors like Rodman, 5 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Ten shirts print at a fair small-run price: full color, no screens, no setup fee. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Photographs print exactly as shot, handled with the care these orders deserve. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Gradients, photos, and complex art with no per-color charges. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Prove the design at 10 pieces, then scale the winner into a screen-printed hundred. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Every shirt in the box can carry different art at the same per-piece rate. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Retirement, promotion, and gift runs turned around fast. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Cylinder customers get straight answers on dates, a named person on their order, and work we would put our own name on.
That standard cuts both ways. If your art needs work or your timeline is impossible, we tell you up front and offer the fix, because a bad shirt with our print on it costs us more than the order.
Ninety seconds in the Design Lab gets you a complete number: garment, print, sizes, upcharges, and shipping, all before any contact form.
The right blank depends on budget, season, and how hard the gear will be worn. For Cylinder customers, these three earn their keep.
The premium pairing: washed heavyweight cotton plus full-color DTG equals shelf-ready product. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
The reliable choice for photo prints and memorial pieces, with 80 plus colors to match any design. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Streetwear proportions and max weight, ready for big full-color prints on both sides. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Design help is not an upsell here, it is how orders start. Describe the concept in a sentence, attach whatever reference you have, and within 24 hours a real designer returns a proof drawn as clean vectors, era-correct where it matters. Revisions cost nothing and continue until the proof is right, and your written approval is the only thing that sends it to production.
The Design Lab is there when you want to drive: upload, place, and price the design yourself on the exact garment we print.
Here is what Cylinder customers actually pay, starting from our light cotton tee. Every price includes a standard front print, and the number only moves down as the pack gets bigger.
| Order size | Pack total | Cost per piece | Freight | Back side |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pack of 10 | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 15 | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 20 | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| Pack of 25 | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |
| Pack of 50 | $700 | $14 ea | $22.99 | $2 ea |
| Pack of 100 | $1200 | $12 ea | FREE | $2 ea |
Options price per piece: back prints at the listed rate (falling to $3 at 25 and $2 at 50), oversized full-body fronts at $3 under 25 pieces or $2 above, and 2XL-plus sizes at $6 under 25 pieces or $4 above. Every heavier garment keeps this same pack shape at its own numbers, and the Design Lab totals it live while you build.
Two doors in: the quote form if you want a person on it immediately, or the Design Lab if you want to see it on the garment first. Either way, unfinished ideas are the expected input.
The proof arrives inside a day, drawn at print size on your chosen garment and color. Change anything, as often as needed, at no cost.
Your written approval is the gate. Until it exists, nothing prints; once it exists, exactly that design prints.
Standard turnaround is 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, with rush available when the calendar demands it.
We archive your art and garment specs, which makes the second order a two minute conversation.
Count 5 to 7 business days, production included, for tracked delivery to Cylinder addresses. At 100 pieces shipping costs nothing; under that, the flat rates in the table are the whole story.
The roster is the packing list: every size counted into the box, tracking issued at pickup, and any shortage or transit damage made right at our cost without argument.
Included with every order: a designer turns whatever you send into print-ready art, proofs it within 24 hours, and revises free until approved.
Absolutely. Bulk is where pack pricing shines, and big mixed-size runs ship counted against your roster with a single person accountable for the date.
Extended sizes carry a flat per-piece add: $6 when the order is under 25 pieces, $4 once it reaches 25. The estimate in the Design Lab applies it for you.
Finality is the nature of custom work: no returns once it prints. Your protections live earlier in the process, in the free proof and the written approval that nothing skips.
Order ten, order fifty, order five hundred: 10 pieces is our floor, and for your Cylinder crew, bigger packs simply pull the per-piece price down.
Send whatever exists. Vectors print perfectly, high resolution PNGs print clean, and anything below that gets redrawn free by the design team before it goes near a press.
We do, at the same pace as domestic orders. Deployed and overseas service members at APO and FPO addresses are covered alongside all 50 states.
