I own a handyman business and it was cheaper to start screenprinting than it was to buy 6 t shirts. So now I’m making weird shirts.

    I used to work in a screenprinting factory for years. It was fun and I miss that work sometimes now. I should set up a little corner with a single frame and do some experimenting…

          I bought a kit but if I were going to do it over I would have pieced it out. I’ve never done it before so I didn’t really know what I needed. So I bought the kit, then I ruined a bunch of stuff and lost a lot of time b/c the kit I got was so low quality. Especially the emulsion they sent with it was BAD. I’ve replaced most of the kit with speedball stuff which I recognize isn’t like the gold standard or anything but the price/quality is right where I wanted it. Piecing it out myself would have saved a lot of time and money. The only thing I’m still using out of that kit is a piece of white melamine board, scoop coater, and exposure light
