| I agree. They need to use the Phbb style board. It gets quite annoying when you need to scroll down the page for a post you just made. |

| I've had great luck over at screenprinters.net. I post a question and typically have a response within a few hours. In terms of it all being about the "bottom line," what do you expect from a internet board run in part by the guy who wrote a title called "how to screenprint t-shirts for fun and profit." Hey at least most of the questions are answered free of charge. |

Spend the money to buy even a crappy press of ebay. they aren't great but if you want to print multicolour (especially if there is detail) they will be less of a headache than building your own. Get aluminum screen too, most registration problems on homemade presses are because the screens bend a flex because most are made of wood.
screenprinters.net is hands down the best source of information on how the screen print. they only care about money? Well when you own a company that needs to bring in several thousand dollars every month to stay afloat, all of a sudden it becomes apparent that you need to charge people for your services. We would all like to print for free, but if you don't charge for everystep you will never get out of the basement (which is a fine place to print if you plan on staying there) |
