Speedy-T, a flip fold on steroids
« on: July 08, 2014, 08:39:08 AM »
I kind of like the Speed-T, but the price is just a little too high for what it does.  At half the price I would almost consider getting one.

Does the same thing and I'm sure it's as fast as that machine.

I can fold a tee shirt as fast as it took him to layout the tee on the machine. No I could never make everyone identical in size but still!

we built a "flip fold out of coro-plast that is resized to fold a shirt at 1/2 the size of a typical cardboard shipping box.
When stacked we get two stacks of shirts that fully , neatly fill the typical box with no slop or tipping over.
I can dig up the dimensions if anyone is interested.

Finally got around to throwing this together, here are the dims to yield a folded tee shirt to 10 x 15 inch, neatly fits in two stackes in a 15 wide x 20 long standard box.
pretty sure the operating instructions are not required but just in case try  flip, flip, flip, flip ::)
