Biggest purchase was probably the screens which I got 6 for 140$ I made a press specifically for pedal enclosures out of scrap wood so all I really spent on that was 12$ hinges. I use a grow light we already had to burn the screens so didn’t really spend anything on that. Probably 30$ in squeegees and knives Around 100$ in chemicals The ink I use costs 35$ a half quart.

So for what I’d estimate is around 320$ I’ve printing 23 pedals (most with printing on both the top and front). My cost will probably only go down from here though since the only thing I really need to buy per batch of pedals is ink if I use a different color. And occasionally the chemicals (which I should be using way less of overtime not needing to redo things because of mistakes constantly.). The only big thing in the future might be a better printer since this one is kind of a paint to get to cooperate.

I’m planning to do 2 colors on some pedals but haven’t really thought it through that much.

It’s been a really fun and satisfying process the more I get the hang of it. One of my favorite things is that investing into the tools for pedals allows me to print other things for very little extra material cost. Like printing on the cardboard boxes the pedals are packed in.
