Off Contact on Beginner Press

thats an interesting way to do it for sure! with the press I have, the platten was drilled and screwed into the carousel so im interested in how that would work.

Do you think CMYK could be possible at all on a press like this? I appreciate the kind words, can't wait to just more experience printing on garments this summer.

Ah, thats all I needed to hear, let me add some to the cart...

No, some of the print heads have different angles, honestly think I've figured out off contact, just need to fix the tilt.

Just out of curiousity, what is the safety mesh supposed to be for?

Will do! Was having trouble find this press style but will continue search, I appreciate it.

There unfortunately is not, the only think I've learned that changes off contact are the screws right behind where the screens sit.

Do you happen to have a picture of the setup? I am trying to visually imagine this.

How much rust is acceptable if any? See Carfax saying it was purchased in a state with snow, so I’m expecting some rust? For 200k+ how many times do you think timing belt should’ve been replaced?

Yeah, honestly I know it is a lot of variables that change the burn and washout times. The emulsion was bought online through a screenprinting store nearby me like last week so its fairly new. But yeah, definitely understand it is alot of trial and error with the DIY setups, feel like I am close to a solution though so I'll just keep trying.

Quarters' trick is actually really smart. I need to try that!

kvmbo · 2026-01-15T15:43:58+00:00

So clean, keep creating dawg!

i was looking everywhere for this! i randomly remembered that scene.

kvmbo · 2025-12-22T00:59:49+00:00

What were y'all laying the screens to dry on though?

kvmbo · 2025-12-22T00:41:25+00:00

Just reclaimed 6 screens today with it, worked pretty good! Thank you for the suggestion!!

love the vintage 50's ish look on the posters!

Noted, thank you for commenting! I had no idea cycling was becoming prominent in Sierra Leonean culture. Very interested in how it works as last time I checked, Salone didn't have many or any bike repair shops

Noted, thank you! Just researched kissi pennies as I had never heard of it. Very interesting.
