It's basically an ad for the screen printer..
It’s a bit annoying that you have to figure all these small tricks (alignment pins, shims, etc.) despite these expensive machines are of the same brand. 😒
You need a white base on dark fabrics :) great video, so informative, love your channel
It's around 2k $ if you were asking yourself
Jeez so unless I'm printing everyday charging a small fortune I'm heading for bankruptcy. Photo emulsion for me rather wear a mask for smells than a mask to rob my customers cost of huge laser aswell as those screens unless your starting out and have a fortune or a massive customer base doubt this will make it in the real world .
This system appears suitable for hobbyist only...hobbyists with unlimited budgets.
its best practice when printing color on dark surfaces to add the color layer to the white layer when making the screens, and sizing the color layer up a couple pixels. Then print the color on top of the white layer. this way you only need one pass of color and you can avoid thick ink application. sizing the color layer up will also make it easier to line up the layers and you wont see the color when it get directly printing on to the dark surface.
Seems like you have descovered the most expensive way to screen print.
Whenever you have a color you need to put a layer of white underneath it
Can these secreens be reuseble ? (Meaning can you "unprint" them ?)
I am in general a fan of the "Not a tutorial, but an educational explanation of what I did and the considerations I was making in the process" format, and this video is a 10/10 for me. Looking forward to whatever you put out next.
Back in the days, I interned at a screen printer. For multicolour, we had all the screens set up in a circle around a pole and pre-aligned them. That way, you printed one colour and then pivoted the screen you just used to the side, thereby brining in the next screen already aligned perfectly. That way, you saved the time of changing screens in the holder for every print.
one thing i like about you is that you always have one eye pointed to the future. who else would have sanded and varnished the plywood immediately to make future cleanup easier?
Screen printing aside, that's one hella aesthetically pleasing looking workshop!
Thank you for a very interesting video, Cris! You seem to be full of energy and creativity again and that makes me really happy!
Wow. What a huge advance over the traditional methods! So much simpler, faster and much easier to keep screens in registration. Perfect for short-run multicolor prints.... and very economical, given what's included in that multicolor kit. (Clever technique on the magnet and thin ruler to keep the notebooks flat.)
You're so cool. I'm glad I found your channel; the inspiration you create is like no other. Thank you!
Love it! Your quality and attention to detail is what keeps me coming back. Can’t believe you’re almost at 1 million subs!
You come across as such a kind and caring person and I thank you for all your help in various products that I've used over the years. Keep up the great work! Esp. love the glue scraper.
It's always such a joy to watch your creative process! I love that you share the mistakes and problems as well! Creativity is often messy but when you see the end result all the hard work is worth it! Thank you!
