this is the best tutorial for this i’ve found so thank you 🙌🏻 i learned to screen print in college where we had a whole exposure unit which made that part of it so easy, but since i’ve graduated i got stuff to print from home but the exposure part is definitely the biggest learning curve
Really glad it helped! I've found that most problems with printing at home stems from the exposure process, so it's worth spending time getting it right. Since making this video, I started exposing my screens in a room where I could close the curtains. Doing this next to a window is not ideal because the light changes a lot depending on what the weather is like.
Are you still washing them out in the shower? I am in a 1 bedroom London flat with no garden and do the same but I am curious to know if there is a better option @@EddHawkes
@@bewheyes, I still wash them out in the shower. In this video I had to have the pressure right up but that's actually a sign that the screen is slightly overexposed. If you get the exposure time spot on, the unexposed emulsion should more or less fall out with even a moderate pressure. I've seen people wash out screens with a pressure washer but that's massively overkill and you're likely to get very wet!
waaah. i never noticed you stopped this series before really finishing it :-/ or did I miss the episode where you give tipps on the printing process itself? or did you never intend to do that?
Hey, yeah sorry about that. I never actually shot a video of the printing process itself. There are tons of decent videos out there on the actual print process itself. The part with the biggest learning curve and least information on RU-vid was definitely making the screens, which is why I concentrated on that.
