I had to say it myself.....

Thank you for subscribing!! -Steven
Brooooo lemme get some one shots of that kit! Ill flip em in a beat.
Can't seem to find time to get all of the mics set up :( Hopefully sometime in 2022 haha. -Steven
Great video. I don't know if anyone else asked but why can't you just do a solid white background first?
i think just becwuse itd use too much ink
Yeah it would use more ink, and if you’re making two screens anyway might as well not have to layer inks
Thanks for the video. I see you are using a Stylus 4800. They are now defunct. Recommend a printer for us newbies trying to upgrade? Thank you.
If the screen time in photoshop didn't have the mouse doing circles over and over it would be easier to follow. Thanks
all hail Cardiel!
Yesssss! -Steven
Awesome 👏
Thank you!! -Steven
If you make a table template you don't have to use a t square every time. Lay film down on table, place screen on top of film and voila. Hit me up if you want a video.
Hey there, thanks for the comment. Believe it or not, I prefer to use the t-square to align my films. Been doing it that way for a long time, and I just don't prefer a template. Thanks for checking out the video!
Great tutorial, thanks. One observation though, if I may…the humming and the ambient noise makes it hard to hear you. I suggest you guys invest in a lavalier mic.😌
thankyou
Thanks!
I see the cardiel I click
You said it! Thanks for checking it out! -Steven
When I hit the eraser tool I don’t get any option to rasterise. When I try to add bitmap it merges all images together and locks them.
Nice.. 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you!! -Steven
Great print! Great tips too. New subscriber here 👋🏻
Thank you!! -Steven
Brilliant
So in order to print on black we need to do a white layer first?
Not necessarily. If you print white and black, you can print it on any color shirt. Black ink would be best light color tees. Thanks!
What kind of low-tack adhesive do you use to hold the fabric in place? I've got several types of automotive and 3M sprays, but I think they would be far more permanent than would be wise.
I got to say it: I HAIL CARDIEL!!!!
Hello, I would like to try this on a grey shirt black ink. Do I invert the image like you would do to print on black shirts or not invert. Any help would be appreciated Thanks
For light colored shirts such as light gray, the image would not be inverted. Thanks!
What kind of printer are you using ? and why did you chose that one?
Epson 4880. It's an older model that works very well. Thanks!
hello, what fabric composition of the shirt
100% cotton on this one.
How long did you expose the half tone print...lmk
25 seconds on an LED Exposure Unit. Thanks!
I see you using the power washer to wash out the screen after exposing it would it blow out the halftone also?
If the emulsion is fully exposed, it can be washed out with a power washer. If emulsion is uner-exposed, a power washer would blow out the halftones much easier.
@@NorCalScreenPrintSupply give thanks for sharing you knowledge with us.
Just put your hand inside the tshirt from neck,, try to put it off from the table .it will be way easier .
Wow...✅👍
is that an 8.5” x 11” print??
about 11" wide.. not sure the height now.
🔥
After it was exposed you place it on the dip tank? Would that soften the whole emulsion? Do u do that on all screens not only with half tones and how long it’s left in the tank? Thanks for the great videos
We actually pre-develop every screen in the dip tank. If the screen has been exposed properly, only the unexposed emulsion will soften. If the screen has been exposed long enough, it can be left in the dip tank quite a long time (I'm sure I've left one in for at least half an hour).. But usually 1 - 2 minutes will do the trick. Thanks!

Hey, I was wondering if the gray gradients in this two-color screen print would turn out more detailed and smoother if you are making more than a black and white screen. For example adding a screen with gray or even adding more screens with different shades of gray? Or is that just more work and the result is worse than just a two-color screen print? Would love to hear your opinions and why's! :-)
Hey, great point. A better print can definitely be achieved with more shades of gray. More work, but worth it to get the best print possible.
Duotone BW photos use black, silver grey and white. They're beautifully toned, but It may be more work than needed for screen prints.

What ink did you use?
What’s the angle you use for halftones?
It's right there in the video at 04:05 - 26°
what screen size are you using?
20x24 outer diameter, 230 mesh. Thanks!
@@NorCalScreenPrintSupply
how much and how to mix the emulsion and the senitizer for that screen ?
that measure.
thanks!
what mesh did you use?
This is 230 mesh. Thanks!
how do you lower your greyscale opacity to avoid dot gain ?
Hmmm not sure I understand. I usually would not lower greyscale opacity. If you want to reduce the color information and print less information, you could select the art in Photoshop and use the curves function to lessen the darkness. To prevent dot gain, use higher mesh count and keep print strokes to a minimum - just enough to clear the ink through the screen and onto your shirt. Hope that helps!
@@NorCalScreenPrintSupply so the key is curves, higher mesh count and minimalize stroke.. thanks bro 🥰
Random Drum Solo... lol
Great tutorial ,TERRIBLE MAC interface and mouse usage.
Get yourself a nice Pc ,STOP wasting money on apple
Thanks!
