 +=====Notes =====  
 +  * [[members:tomgondek|Tom Gondek]] is an expert user and owns the machine. 
 +  * If you're not an expert, please use only water-based inks, not the Plastisol inks! 
 +  * There are a number of consumables such as ink, tape, and transfer paper. Please make sure you replenish what you use/donate to the area and appropriate amount for the space to replenish it with area funds. 
 +  * Clean up! Screen printing is messy, especially for beginners. Make sure you clean the squeegees and screens and the machine itself. Don't leave a mess for the next person. 
 +  * Make sure you turn the heater off (and unplug it) when you are done!
