I’ve wanted to try it for a long time, but never got around to it. I’m curious about any techniques that are more grass roots outside of the commercialized space, like what are the absolute minimum things needed when repeatability, convenience, and time are not important factors, but money and access to rare markets is extremely limited? What have you made before?
Like:
- a (blank) makes a good screen, or (blank) is an alternate technique to screens
- (blank) can work as a replacement for emulsion
- (blank) is an alternative for ink
I’m personally interested in printing on t-shirts, but also printing silkscreens on circuit boards.
A long time ago I tried it. I found some fine mesh at the fabric store, made frames from whatever, and probably bought ink and UV stuff to make the design.
It worked fine, its not that hard.
