I’ve wanted to try it for a long time, but never got around to it. I’m curious about any techniques that are more grass roots outside of the commercialized space, like what are the absolute minimum things needed when repeatability, convenience, and time are not important factors, but money and access to rare markets is extremely limited? What have you made before?
Like:
- a (blank) makes a good screen, or (blank) is an alternate technique to screens
- (blank) can work as a replacement for emulsion
- (blank) is an alternative for ink
I’m personally interested in printing on t-shirts, but also printing silkscreens on circuit boards.
Get a cheap screen printing frame holder thing off the Internet, order some ink and a squeegee, I used to burn my own screens but now there are places that will burn your art and mail it to you pretty quickly and it’s way better, easier, faster than trying to get an exposure perfect on your own. I do t shirts but it’s pretty simple. YouTube a video on how to technique and you’ll be golden
