I am making a shirt, and I am sick of the regular print and iron on... so I wanted to know if any of you have tried silk screening and I wanted to know what it is and what you do.

its pretty cool

it takes a fair amount of practice

im not very good at it yet

but when you get good

its one of the best ways to make shirts

ask tyson

he's good at it

my friend is making me a black styx t shirt with their silhouettes on it in white using silk screening... shes pretty good at it.... if you dont know how to do it you can fuck up alot of shirts learning how.

you spread this light sensitive goo on the shirt and then shine the light via projector onto the shirt/ goo and it burns the image into the shirt.. .anyways

Cool, I made this design thing for a shirt and I don't feel like buying another shirt to waste with printing and ironing(Even if they cost like 4 bucks)... so yeah.

HEY TYSON... WANT TO HELP ME?

edit: conversation1, thanks... maybe I'll try it out. Do you know how much it costs to get the stuff? Not counting the projector, of course.

photo-emulsion fluid

that's just one of the ways to make screens

i just got a photo-emulsion kit

but i don't have a lamp

so i need to take care of that

what you need to take care of

is your posts consisting of

this bull shit line to line

typing. you super re

tard

ha i was wondering how long i would have to go before i got yelled it....at least i went to a new line at the end of a thought, not in the middle of words....

Cool website. Thanks.


But I spend too much time on photoshop, I may as well do something with the mediocre shit I make.

d00d, hoodies with one line of text are so hot topic.....make an actual design for christs sake

jordan can you sex me up please?

1.) there's more there then hoodies: t-shirts, ski jackets, purses, etc
2.) you can do more then just a line of text
3.) im a loser so i'm going to use hot topic as a scapegoat.

steve lafleur999: sex you up for what reason?

whatever...i just don't think its as cool as if it comes completely from you, your idea, your design, your handiwork, your finished product....something you can be proud of....

instead of investing your money in silkscreening...invest it in recording music!

Well then, let me know how your designing one tshirt goes and if it goes anywhere, ky?

im sorry, i have no idea how much it would cost to get all that stuff

amen

i have several designs....it probably won't get anywhere except me having a couple shirts that i like and no one i know understands...but i'm still proud of them

If I were capable of creating music... none of you would want to hear it.

Exactly, it's something fun to do... and no one else has it.
