MADE was built as a stage, and what more fitting than to print on the District Concert Tee on a ROQ OVAL Pro. We chose this shirt because it is economically fashionable, with 30/1 open-end cotton that provides a tighter knit and smoother surface, making it very printable. This graphic, designed by MADE for the MADE to ROQ course, laid down nicely- but accidents do happen! We easily got a new screen out, registered it quickly with the ROQ REG Platen, and got back to printing in no time.⁠ ⁠ Join u https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DV2laJpgVmw https://www.youtube.com/embed/DV2laJpgVmw 2023-03-21T23:59:57.000Z https://i.ytimg.com/vi/uYE4EakdYZ8/maxresdefault.jpg MADE x ROQ Faux Applique´ Print #HowItsMADE: Checkout how MADE Lab printed this special ROQ faux Applique print using 6 screens. 1️⃣ Imaged Saati Hydro mesh on GSF frames using the Saati LTS and developed automatically with the Lotus Holland. 2️⃣ Custom mixed ink using Rutland M3 and the Avient special Effects series. 3️⃣ The print construction started with a cool grey 9 underbase then special effects 376 C using Avient HD Soft Base, 15% Rutland C3 Inks, 10% Avient Flexipuff through an 86 mesh screen 4️⃣ Print, flash, p https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uYE4EakdYZ8 https://www.youtube.com/embed/uYE4EakdYZ8 2023-02-22T22:32:57.000Z https://i.ytimg.com/vi/_I9Z80wgHRk/maxresdefault.jpg Faux Appliqué Printing!

The thermocoupler instrument and screen printing probe is a great tool to utilize and effectively get a reading on how hot your dryer is getting throughout.

Do you prefer to push or pull your ink? Neither is the right way, but if you are having trouble getting the pressure, try pushing because you can put your body weight into it. You want your squeegee at about a 75-degree angle no matter which direction you choose to apply the ink. #MADEtoprint #screenprintingclass #screenprinting #screenprintingfilm #screenprinters #learntoscreenprint #darkroom https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHB9lVi3HUs https://www.youtube.com/embed/pHB9lVi3HUs 2022-12-16T16:00:33.000Z https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qiFEC-VYE_I/maxresdefault.jpg MADE to Print 15: Ink Mixing You can always add more ink, but you can't take it back.

It is important to be aware of how much or how little humidity is in your darkroom and adjust accordingly.

Ensuring a good cure is the most important part in the screen printing process whether you are printing on a @rileyhopkinsco press or @roq.us press and Sahara Dryer. The donut allows you to read the actual temperature of the ink throughout the dryer process versus just one surface reading. Be sure to document your results and save for future reference in maintenance or when determining a time to replace machines. #screenprint #screenprinting #printsho https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2Pa41zfotg https://www.youtube.com/embed/O2Pa41zfotg 2022-11-21T16:00:13.000Z https://i.ytimg.com/vi/AsAj97yEfmU/maxresdefault.jpg MADE to Print 20: Printing on Fleece with Underbase The fabric of the garment you are printing on will affect ink differently. Cotton, for example, has a lot of fibers that stick up, called fibrillation. One way to combat this is using a machine called the STAMPINATOR from @roq.us. It works like an iron and presses the fabric flat for an even application of ink. #MADEtoprint #screenprintingclass #screenprinting #screenprintingfilm #screenprinters #learntoscreenprint #darkroom https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsAj97yEfmU https://www.youtube.com/embed/AsAj97yEfmU 2022-11-20T16:00:08.000Z https://i.ytimg.com/vi/-8EevsC3LCU/maxresdefault.jpg Screen Printing Is Fun, Water Based Ink Design from WB Camp 2022 Night Owls Print Shop designed Screen Printing is Fun for WB Camp in order to showcase multiple types of water based ink on the same garment.
