KILLER BRU! Please look into doing a video on print workflow ie - where to setup flash for multi colour runs, when to print wet on wet, when not to, how to flash an overprint on an underbase, without over flashing the base for the next colour? There's so much to be learnt there which I have NEVER seen explained properly. Keep trotting!
I used this tip a couple of weeks ago on a shirt* for a buddy of mine as a thank you for him buying my 4 color carousel, i had to do it without microreg tho. You showed this 2 times before, that doesn't matter cause people might not have seen the other 2 times you used this "trick". Keep em coming Brother. waiting for the next one. *He just wanted 1 shirt as a show piece in his livingroom.
The other times I showed it, it was buried in a longer video where people searching for registration tips won't find it. Figured it was time for it's own video to make searching it out easy for everyone
Exactly what I was looking for! I've been wondering how putting a register on a pallet was supposed to get me set. Then once putting the shirt on the pallet, how are you supposed to see the registration marks? Your instructions helped out a ton, Brother. I'm just now starting off in the industry so I'm trying to learn as much as I can. Thanks!
@Lee Stuart I have told the shop I work for about the Reg.Tape. it's been over 3 years that I asked them to get me a roll, and still to this day use packing clear Tape SMH 100% takes a lot longer to tape it, they are other press worker that set up and can use up15-20 shirts on 8 colors set up. so having registration tape is a most have 100%
Man that's a bummer that they won't do that for you. Registration tape lasts a super long time, cuts a lot of waste and will speed up the process by a ton. I set up 2-5 jobs per day on my auto and a roll has lasted me a year so far and it's only 3/4 gone. That much packing tape would cost a fortune
@leestuart38 for sure. Beside that, they have so many other things they need to fix. Like 100 fisheyes on screen. Just on a light table, just blueblocking the screen for 5 min LMAO.
great video mate . i have a question . iam going to setup my screen printing studio in basement where is little bit cold and no window ,only a door . so iam worrying about the humidity or temperature level . will it effect to keep the inks and store the cloths ??? also i have DTG machine too . will it effect it ? will heater or dehumidifier help ?
It won't affect anything in the screen printing area for the most part, but if you're drying screens out in the open you'll want the humidity level to be below 40% to allow them to dry properly. My shop is at 25%. The humidity level will affect the DTG though. Too low and it'll have issues so you'll have to find the sweet spot between both setups. Get yourself a way to take control of the environment with a heater and either a humidifier or a dehumidifier depending on the humidity levels. Won't cost much.
@@leestuart38 Thank you so so much for this replay mate. i was worrying and now iam clear by your replay . Will it effect on cloths ? because i should keep the cloth too inside .i have my own brand .yes iam going get heater and dehumidifier to control environment inside the basement ..thank you again
I use vinyl application tape as well for registration, I was asking about the tape you use near the edges of your screens where the emulsion stops to the frame of the screen itself. The green Ryonet tape seems to be extra sticky when it sticks sticky side to sticky side it is near impossible to get apart without destroying the tape itself and then you end up starting over.@@leestuart38
I have checked out many of your videos. Glad you are doing well but you are way too over the top in regards to the latest tech and equipment. Not really this video but in general, you make things more complicated and far more expensive than they should be, in my opinion. I am sure you feel this keeps you on top of the game but I will put my 42 years of experience up against your tech any day of the week. I will go as fast and accurate as anything you can do with all your techie stuff. To be fair, I an NOT a fan of Ryonet and you are obviously their boy, so that could be part of my angst here.
Would you feel better if I had bought old used equipment? That's a pretty ridiculous argument. Spending money on the latest tech speeds up production, improves product quality and improves quality of life in the workplace. It's as simple as that. And you're never going to beat my "techie" stuff no matter how good you think you are. That auto spits out 600-800 pieces an hour with 8 colors done with laser precision, and it has more speed than that in the tank. You'd need an entire army of people on adderall to do less than half of that on manual presses.
Currently I know the basics of waterbased ink, I've only used it a handful of times over the years. But I plan on making videos about me learning the process sometime soon, it's time to expand my knowledge
