Setting up a Yudu screen is one of the most tedious and time consuming parts of Yudu printing. However there is a solution. Simply use some vinyl with your Cricut machine.
There is a 90% chance that idf you own a Yudu machine from provo craft you also own a Cricut machine. Then rather than go through the entire process and cost of setting up a screen with emulsion you can just use some adhesive vinyl.
This is only good for a limited run of prints, but it's not so bad to invest the time with emulsion if you are making lots of prints. The concept is really simple. You are just using the vinyl in place of the capilarry film.
The only consideration that you really have to make when doing this is that every thing bust be reversed when you cut out your vinyl. This will ensure that the prints work properly. With the vinyl cut you can apply it to the screen and run prints just as you normally would.
The vinyl will break down from the water in the ink much more quickly than the emulsion will so this is only a solution for short runs. But the cost and time savings for small batches actually makes you have some profit potential on small jobs.
I have a yudu machine I purchased a few years ago,and until today I finally was able to pull it out and use it. I didn't go thru the emulsion process. So I cut my pattern out of contact paper I got from the dollar store. I used my cricut and created my design. It worked great and was very inexpensive and works like vinyl, just cheaper, especially when you are going to throw the pattern away after you are done with it. It was fast, easy and very inexpensive doing it that way.
Could you make a vedio on how you did that?
Me too
How did you get your shirt to not stick to the screen? My letters are coming out blurry. Thanks!
OMG I finally tried silk screening, your way. It worked wonderfully. Thanks for the tip about using the Cricut and vinyl. I did have a line over the first letters don't know why, I taped it. I cut the vinyl on the paper side up. Couldn't flip the letters right. Soo much fun..
what a great idea to use the vinyl, no expensive transfer sheets to use and much quicker. Thanks
Question: Does the tape and sticky vinyl damage the screen at all?
Why do my image come out smudge on t-shirt after only a few prints?
what kind of ink do you use and why can you not use it more than once? It is taped securely. Where did you get the small holder for the child's shirt? A regular tshirt one came with mine.
Where do you get your ink?
what type of transparency flim did you use
what kind of filim did you use? PLEASE ANSWER
I'm trying to find some screens for the yudo where can I find the mat

Can you tell me why do my image on t shirt smudge when I screen print?
Awesome tutorial. Now somebody just needs to know where they can get their image printed on vinyl
Funny story, if you forget to take off the transfer backing it doesn’t work! 🤣, it was a long day!
