    Hello Screen Troopers! This is a very special video. I made this video about 1 year ago and totally forgot about it until I saw it in my editing folder without any work done so I investigated and was happily surprised. This was made with my older cameras so there is some focusing issues and the audio is not as good as it is now. But the tutorial video is an important one for manual textile screenprinting. Therefore, I decided to upload it to buy me some more time as I make a few new videos. So, if you have ever wondered how much squeegee pressure is too much then this video is a must see. I briefly discuss how you know when you’re using too much squeegee press and what it can do to your printing. I hope the video quality is not too bad and forgive me for the delayed intro as I seemed to have left a little too much footage on the front end. It’s a great educational video though so I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. Thanks for watching!

      You're welcome. Yes, it's very easy to use too much squeegee pressure. Takes a little time to get used to is all. Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/

    Great info. By the way, I made a replica of the ergo squeegee using glass fiber and it worked well. I can now print all day long with ease. 😀😀

    Always good information! Thanks for posting. What's you opinion on pushing a squeegee? I've grown more accustom to pushing. I like the idea that it puts less strain on my joints.

    • @CatspitProductions
      @CatspitProductions  Před 5 lety +1

      Thank you! I agree. That's how I do it. I pull flood and push print. Way easier on the body in so many ways and transfers force to the screen much better. As a result it's easier to use too much pressure with a push print stroke but not something you cannot manage. Thanks for watching!

    Thanks for another amazing educational video! Is there a way I can get one of those awesome catspit shirts like the one you’re wearing in this video? I want to support the channel, and that shirt is so cool!

    • @CatspitProductions
      @CatspitProductions  Před 3 lety +1

      Thank you. No Catspit shirts are available currently. I'll do another freebie run sometime soon. Stay tuned to CZcams for that and be sure to subscribe to the Catspit CZcams channel. And rate thumbs up on my videos ;) Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/

    Helpful info, thanks. Would have been great to see a pass from side-on with appropriate pressure rather than just talking about it (for all the visual learners out there)

    • @CatspitProductions
      @CatspitProductions  Před 5 lety

      You're welcome. That's what the close up shots of the squeegee bending and flexing were supposed to do. In the first shot I show what bending looks like and in the second I demonstrated what flexing would be like. I thought that was better emphasizing on the squeegee alone. But maybe not ;) LOL... I try. Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/

    Great stuff as always. Do you have any information on squeegee sharping?

    • @CatspitProductions
      @CatspitProductions  Před 5 lety

      Thank you my friend. There are manual and powered machines to help you sharpen squeegees. You can do that to extend the life of squeegees when they are still in good shape but simply dull. Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/

    Tell me exactly if it bend what would it result to

    • @CatspitProductions
      @CatspitProductions  Před 2 lety +1

      The squeegee will not perform properly and ink will creep up on the handle on one side. The video basically goes over why it's not the best idea. Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/
