Notes

  • Pete Prodoehl has been appointed Area Champion for the screen printing area. If you have questions, please ask him.
  • Tom Gondek is an expert user, in fact, he 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, spray glue, and possibly vinyl and transfer paper. Please make sure you replenish what you use.
  • 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.
