New Map

Thank you - coincidentally they were the first company I used for this map a few years back and my first one fell apart before the print cracked. Unfortunately the year after one wash did for the print so I went elsewhere. Could have been a one off so will give them another go on the back of this, cheers.

 

all the ones i have gotten recently have been on the "heavyweight" shirt and the print has been that sort of print that is actually IN the shirt rather than ON the shirt (sorry, i don't know what it's actually called but you know what i mean?) so won't crack or peel.

 

can only comment on my experience, but i was happy enough to buy more 😀

That'll require rearranging the whole map to make space so it's on the 'next year' list.

The line between the Crow’s Nest and Strummerville is misleading because there’s no way to follow the fence line along the top of the site, you always have to head back down past the BBC and the tipis before you can up to back up to Strummerville. And while we’re there I suppose Pennard Hill gate might deserve a mention?

Thank you for the input! I guess I'm showing my personal bimbling preferences here. It's not a paved route per se but you can walk across the top of the Tipi field and then duck down a bit to cut into the field with the GLASTONBURY sign, Tricketts, etc. I really like that bit. Views are as good as from the GLASTONBURY sign but without the crowds. Really chill place to catch a sunrise.

Excellent work again, I can link this on Twitter and publicise the raffle if that is any help. Where abouts is the map displayed at the festival? I know I've walked past it a number of times, somewhere near Greenpeace?

Thank you - that would be great - but I'm under orders from the gaffer not to post it on social media just yet. iTHINC will post it first and then the rest of us can go crazy. The map hangs on the outside of Green Welfare, so just the Croissant Neuf side of the railway track, directly opposite where the solar-powered cinema used to be 😞

My last two shirts have ended up in the bin pretty quickly due to ropey printing that peeled off

Exactly this. Check with the printer whether they use heat transfer - essentially a big iron-on sticker that will crack and crumble off in short order - or direct-to-garment printing (or possibly dye sublimation onto polycotton), which is actually printing onto the fabric itself and will last much longer.

 

Editing to add this useful explainer. Not an endorsement of this printer – I've never used them – but it's a handy discussion of the different print technology options.

Nice one. If I don't see it, let me know when iTHINC have poster it and I'll pick it up from there.

I used them a couple of weeks ago to get some running T-shirts problem done. Absolutely no issues at all with them.
