So I’m window shopping for gocco-related items on Etsy on my laptop right now and these are my favorites atm. 
First up, I have tile starry leica by CircaCeramics. I love Leica and I love the blue-grey wash they’ve given the tile.
Next, how about a Keyboard Zipper Pouch by ILITT? Comes in blue too. Also available in a boombox print.
And here’s some fruity fun pillows by jekbot. They come in colors but I like the B&W version, don’t ask me why!
A refreshing change from the usual Gocco on paper, ain’t it?

Many people ask me “Which Gocco should I buy?” or “Where can I buy a Print Gocco?” thus I’ve decided to put together this little article (possibly the first of a series) to share what it’s all about. Personally, I own an NEHOC Screenprint Kit which I bought from NEHOC Australia.
Basically all models of the print Gocco can be used for paper and fabric, depending on the additional accessories that you purchase or use with the machine. Similarly, the size that a print Gocco can produce is not limited by its model nor restricted by its default print size. You can do multiple exposures to one big sheet of screen mesh to produce larger prints (it’s simply more work). The differences between the models lie in the default imaging size and the accessories provided (bulbs, inks, squeegee, etc), which will allow you to print on different mediums such as paper, cloth or even ceramics!

Differences between printing on paper and printing on fabric
Ink: Well firstly, you’ll need different types of ink. You may use fabric inks on paper but the reverse is not true as paper inks on fabric will not survive washing. However, I have used fabric inks on paper without any problems. I am not sure about how archival-safe the paper or fabric inks are though.
Accessories: You’ll need a squeegee to apply the ink onto fabrics instead of “press printing” the image onto the cloth.
