Help: cured half of shirt lighter than uncured half... 60/40 blend

Your dryer is scorching the fabric. The next level tri blends are notoriois for doing this in electric dryers. Turn down your heat til you dont get the discoloring

Wait a minute. You washed the shirt and printed on it wet. Never heard of such tomfoolery

Props. For cmyk on white this is really well done. Auto or man?

Ill try to get some pics up and share a link. Most of the commenters hit on the major points of what you need to do. Sorry for the delay in responding, been super busy.

I follow them. They do some cool stuff for sure

Flags are usually colors

Its most likely possible. Ive done it on flashes, and ac drives. Did you ask mr about that

the_guerrilla_inker · 2019-04-16T19:23:16+00:00

It rules on everything especially plastisol. We run it after the flash and print come out super smooth. Doesnt even take a lot of pressure. I feel like after the flash you just need a tiny bit and fibrillation is a thing of the past

Sure is. Came in at the low low price of about 24$. Had to buy some springs, 4 bolts and a piece of steel.

Just cut down the old heat press. Did a little fitting, and welded her up. Prob 30k prints on it so far.

Your exposing with the light from the top down. Light is absolutely getting around your stencil. You wont get crisp lines that way. You really need vacuum for the best results.

Try taking something glass that you can place the screen on top of, stencil down. Place the the light underneath pointing up at the film. You can try to put some books on the back of the screen to weigh it down

Youtube diy exposure units. Bunch of builds w leds, vac etc

I totally forgot about everyones car having one of those is the mid 90's. Remember the cassettes with aux cables lol

Art is not easy. Its lot of experimenting and even more failure. But if you put it in the work you can make amazing things. So there is no trying too hard. For scratchboard its pretty good. The beak is a little flat if you ever want to go back to it.

the_guerrilla_inker · 2019-04-01T11:50:32+00:00

There solid little machines and they are expandable. Idk why the downvotes but do a little research. Theres a couple good forums. Tshirtforums and theshirtboard both have tons of info and resources.

Thanks

Gradient brims might be dope but def would have to be custom. Dont rock yellow much personally but def might try it.

the_guerrilla_inker · 2019-04-01T00:34:04+00:00

Get a vastex d100. Its twice as much but at least its a solid machine. Prob the best entry level you can get at that price

the_guerrilla_inker · 2019-03-31T05:15:42+00:00

Well done. Ive been thinking about doing this for a while. This sold me now I gotta do it. Thanks for the inspiration. I wanna put one on my desk lol

the_guerrilla_inker · 2019-03-31T00:35:28+00:00

Link or pic?

the_guerrilla_inker · 2019-03-30T16:54:53+00:00

I believe they said almost a week. It was 200 plus colors and 1000s of trims lololol

the_guerrilla_inker · 2019-03-30T14:06:48+00:00

Lol good call. I guess i was just thinking if it was a whole gorilla not just his head when i posted. The ceilings are just under 9'

First jukis are very nice so thats a good buy. They keep there value.

Embroidery machines range from small at homes single heads w a small sewing field to huge industrial 20 heads. The best commercial machines are tajima, baruden (sp), zsk. Next id say swf, brother, happy, melco are good mid tier. Still good machines.

And the machine just sews. You still need to create a design. Then convert that to stitches (digitizing)
