#CheapExposureUnit #YuduScreenPrint #HowToScreenPrint
I that’s exactly how I started. I bought a new one with everything you could possibly imagine for a $100. I used it on a few screens and 2 days later was upgrading to a real 1 color press. I quickly learn that the 1 color press is more of a starter.
I highly recommend starting off with a Chinese 4 color press. It’s $180 on amazon but there is plenty of room for learning and growing into the press.
Keep up the videos. Missed you the last few days.
Sorry about that sometimes I have a lot going on I try to spend 1 day on the weekends editing as many videos as I can and when I can't do that I usually stay up all night during the week doing it. Both of my boys are now playing football one on Friday night the other Saturday mornings. Hopefully I will be able to keep up.
This is such a good unit for silkscreen and exposing. To bad there is no companies supplying screens for it. There is one but they hella expensive compared to regular screens.
I think Ryonet does or at least they used to a few years back
Thanks for this video! I actually just bought one yesterday, off of Craigslist for $100 bucks. New in box, came with all the old ink and a shirt lol. I plan on replacing the emulsion paper and ink before I start at it. Thanks again.
You got an awesome deal. Thank you for watching!
@@TshirtChick By any chance do you have a video on how to do a crest print on a shirt using a YuDu? Or any tips on how to line it up?
I paid $10 for the yudu at a garage sale a couple weeks ago. Just getting started screen printing.
That was an awesome deal!! I have a video posted about how I used to use the yudu as an exposure unit if you are interested. Thank you for watching!
wow
Thank you for taking the time to do this video... It was very helpful...
You're welcome! Thank you for watching!
Thank you so much...you are so helpful to me and to others.
Just curious with the yudu is it possible to make heat transfer sheet to take straight to the heat press.
And what kind of vinyl do you use? I use to have an online shop where I did my artwork and submitted it and I use to have a greeting card shop so I have graphics, slogans, logos and things I've created over the years just doing nothing that I would love to see on T's.
So to do it myself would be great but I would settle for designing for my prints too. Making my own transfers...
Keep up the great work and thank you for sharing your knowledge.
For my shirt, i printed “This is a shirt”. For my pants: “Here’s my pants”.
Cool that you mentioned craftysansan...I learned a lot from her back when I was starting out.
I was planning on going to a metal fabrication workshop and asking them to make me some yudu screens(its a thin metal frame,im sure they can) and screen them after
Ur super smart wjth making it ur own
But I still use my Yudu to burn my images. The Yudu screens have my paint company logos burned into them. First images burned.
thank you, i've changed my mind about the yudu.
I still use it to burn my screens and it works great.
VERY insightful. Thank you!
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for sharing.
Why not just put the shirt on upside down just like you would a large machine. You wouldn't put the shirt on collar in, you put it on and print the design upside down?? Just wondering
is there a started kit that i can order or that you might recommend for vinyl heat transfer ?
i use my yudu the same way. I took a 100 shirt order when i first started on the yudu it sucked bad..
Thanks for sharing such valuable information. I got a used Yudu, I am noticing my screens are not getting exposed, I think I might to change the light bulb. Have you ever changed the light bulb of your Yudu?
No, I never had to change them during the time i used them. Are you burning for 10 mins? I had to burn for a full 10 mins using Ulano QX-1 Emulsion. I also use the Ryonet Emulsion and burned for 10 mins and that is what worked for me.
How long would I have to leave a 110 screen on a you do to burn it through
I burned it for 10 mins using ulano QX-1 emulsion.
FOR A PERSON JUST STARTING OUT WHAT IS A GOOD VINYL CUTTER AND PRINTER.
Cameo 3...definitely i use it on everything.
Thank you
You are welcome!! Thank you for watching!
so im interested in screenprinting, i can get a yudu for $40 on a yardsale used once, should i or should i go for something else, im so on the fence x great video btw x
A Yudu will make a good exposure unit and you can use up to 11x17 inch film with it.
@@TshirtChick Thankyou x
You're welcome
Do you use something to tack your tee shirts down on you platen?
Yes, I used to use spray adhesive but now I use liquid adhesive I have a video where I did a review on the liquid adhesive that tells why I switched.
TshirtChick ok. I will look for your video. I just have learned so much from your videos.
You do know at 0:27 that white sheet comes off, it is sticky to hold t-shirts?
I never printed 1 shirt using the Yudu so there wasn't a reason to take the cover sheet off. I only used the exposure unit part of it to expose my screens. I'm pretty sure I said that in the video. I only used the pallet to protect the glass when not in use.
@@TshirtChick Yes is what the pallet is for, but people may not know the cover can be removed.
@@jeffnationaltrade If they own one I'm sure they know how it's supposed to be used or they can read the instructions or look for videos of "How to print shirts with a yudu".
@@TshirtChick Maybe
I used that to burn screens and I loved it but to actually print it didnt work for me
I purchased it specifically to burn screens I already had screen printing equipment before I got the YUDU.
I have a yudu and it never seems to expose my image correctly.
I never had any problems with mine I never used it as a yudu only as an exposure unit so I had to alter it for use with regular screen printing screens and I used a board that I had cut to the right size with a few thick/heavy magazines on top to put pressure on the screen so that it laid flat against the film and glass to get the best exposure I could. I even got perfect halftones when I used it. IDK why you don't get good results.
From the future?
I wish

To much work is better just to get the biggest one
what kind of printer do you use to print that large 13x19?
Hello. You need a wide format printer like the Epson 1430. If you have a larger platen and screens, then you can get a 24 inch printer. Some people get an all black ink system, but I did not and have had no problems.
Posters, art work, large large window art in retail store front, huge signage, large swath of fabric.........
Thanks I would need one, how can I get it pliz tell me
The Yudu is basically for a housewife that wants to do project at home
Not really. I used it as an exposure unit for my business that is located in a retail area for a few years until I could upgrade. Instead of finding negative things to say you should try being positive and creative you will enjoy life more.
TshirtChick what was negative about what I said? and for the record you don’t know me..
@@dexterfletcher1396 I don't have to know you just as you don't know me. You see a person here to help people and you post a comment that is closed minded. I started my shop with just a 15 inch vinyl cutter and 15x15 heat press so I know how to improvise and make the best of not much until I can upgrade. Why put limits on things?
