This GENIUS technique by Nican GadinganHD will BLOW YOUR MIND. You don't need all the clamps and steel bars....all you need is a piece of board with nails spaced about an inch apart on one side of the board. I tried it and it works! Instead of using glue on the screens I used staples......that's it ! Here is the link ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_TDfPp32z98.html

That is a good idea but not as accurate and it's not very easy to get staples in an aluminum frame.

You are right. It is meant for wooden frames.

Toggle clamp.

Just did it by feel, but would definitely recommend a tension gage.

I've tried many and the best one is from Rhinotech. Use the 2 part kit not the instant type. Number RMA3000. A quart goes a long way but I usually buy a gallon. Only mix what you are going to use.

Check back. When I get a chance I'll post a video of how to make your own.

Thank you sir I'm from the philippines

Hey Thomas, there's no rubber bands on the clamps.

On the bars that hold the mesh, there is a rubber for it not to slip. Sorry my question wasn’t precise enough

@@bananasESCT the rubber on the clamping bars is a serpentine belt. It's the same belt you find on cars and trucks. It's ribbed so the two pieces of belt hold the material when clamped together. The pieces of belt are glued to the bars with weather strip adhesive.

Thank you so much. Indeed this is a ingenious idea !

Hi sir I like your design can you please send me that design copy for me?it is very helpful to me

RhinoMite frame adhesive.

Thanks for the comments. Pretty straight forward. LMK if you need any help building your own.

The Basement I appreciate it, by the way where did u buy all the steel at? You think home depot might have all of them?

Not likely that steel is available at H.D. I'm not just a screen printer, I'm a fabricator too. I buy all my supplies at a steel yard. All the parts to build this unit came from supplies I had on the shelf so I can't tell you exactly how much it cost. Check your local steel shop and see if they have a scrap section. Most do. You can save huge from new.

Berardi Racing what were the length on the pieces that hold the screen?

I'm sure it would work just fine. Use a hardwood like oak or similar.

@@berardiracing92 thanks gonna try it out

toggle clamp, ebay, aliexpress

To be honest, I'm really not sure.Thats why I also use the c-clamps.

@@berardiracing92 I see thanks for responding!

Thanks for watching!

I have tried many types of adhesive and the best by far is from a company called Rhinotech. They have a two part adhesive that works great. Rhinotechinc.com

There's always a better mouse trap.

The adhesive we are using in this video is from Screen printing.com SKU: GNSU-GLUEKIT $39.99 USD Rhinotechinc.com has some good products as well. Possibly a little stronger than what we are using here.
