Hello,

I am Forrest the founder of The Printing Ox. A Detroit native and a Columbus transplant. The husband to an incredible wife Nicole and father of 3 precious children; Benjamin, Judah, and Everly. I have always had a love for anything and everything creative. I look forward to helping build the apparel of your dreams while chasing mine!​

My Story

This dream started as a kid in high school. I had the opportunity to design two different t-shirts. The first t-shirt I designed was for the school I attended. Even though I didn't know much about design, people wore it! The feeling of seeing people wear my work was indescribable. I couldn't wait to create again! This time I was able to create merch for a youth conference. After we sent the design off to the print shop I couldn't wait to get the shirts back, and I was ready to experience that same fuzzy feeling. That feeling never came... the shirts were not at all what I thought they would be. My design was distorted and the print was awful. I immediately thought, I could do better than that. So I sent off a few more designs to printing companies to have an array of different experiences. I determined that I was done waiting for other printing companies to capture my vision.

​

I began to print as a hobbyist for personal projects, family, friends, youth ministries, local churches, bands, some businesses, and even a few custom Christmas outfits.

After every print it showed that I could deliver a greater product than the prints I had received from prior companies. This idea led me to start The Printing Ox!  Now we are working as hard as an ox to bring you the warm fuzzy feeling of seeing your vision brought to life!
