Excellent Starter Kit

When this kit arrived (I'd also purchased a second screen in case a screwed up), I read the instructions cover-to-cover, and thought I had a pretty good handle on it, but when I coated the screen with emulsion, I went a little heavy, and made kind of a mess. While it was drying, I watched a couple YouTube videos specifically about that step. When I made the second screen, I was more confident in my work. The rest of the process went by the book. While the book is clear and well-written, watching a couple YouTube videos really helped me better understand the steps. The first project (about 20 cloth shopping bags with a logo) came out a lot better than I thought they would. I would recommend this kit for anyone interested in trying out silk screening.

My new favorite hobby...

I initially bought this kit to make bridesmaids t-shirts for my sisters bachelorette party. I wanted a very intricate design and wanted a very specific kind of shirt, so I took a chance with making them myself. I had three different colors going on, so I made three passes. The process is time consuming - mostly a lot of waiting time while things dry - but the results are fantastic! People couldn't believe that I had made them. I have been able to screen print 4 different designs with the amount of photo emulsion provided and am buying more emulsion because I've been screen printing quite a bit now. I've been using the fabric paint colors provided and still have plenty left. So much fun! I would highly recommend to anyone who likes DIY and has the time to do it.

This kit made it so easy for me to learn this process and realize I wanted to take this farther.

This was a great deal and includes everything you would need to get started. I built a simple wooden one color press I saw on youtube and it helped speed up the printing process with some accuracy. The light bulb is a short term "3 hour" bulb but mine is still working after burning 8 screens. The emulsion you get in the kit will coat about 4 screens. We have printed up several shirts and tote bags for our business. This is a great package to test the waters and see if this is something you want to do. Our local Hobby stores carry this brand so I was able to pick up some extra screens and material. I have since bought a 4 color press and this weekend I am excited to pick up our 6 color press. I also found a local supply store that I have been purchasing commercial products from as I grow from this kit. This kit made it so easy for me to learn this process and realize I wanted to take this farther. The video provided does not completely explain the process but I did so much research on youtube that I was able to pick up the kit and start immediately. This is great if you are testing the waters or if you have a project. The inks provided are water-based and air dry well except the white. I found that you need to hit the white ink with the hot setting on a hair dryer for a few minutes or it will crack after the first wash. Everything that came with this kit will continue to be used as I grow my system. I will probably only use these smaller screens for tote bags or small print jobs since I now own several 20x24 commercial aluminum screens. I can't say enough good things about this as a starter kit. I really gave me the confidence I needed to spend $2,500 on professional equipment!

This is great

Amazing shirt kit love it .

exellent starter kit

ive been dabbling in screen printing for a few years now. the local art store only sells speedball products so i was already familiar with the brand. switching from the drawing fluid method to photo emulsion i wanted a good starter set up. the bulb burnt out after one use and they are quite expensive to purchase and never have a long lifespan anyway. average a few hours i think. either way i use clear 200 watt bulbs instead now but everything that is included in this kit is great and it is an amazing deal. way less expensive than it would cost at the art store in my town. absolutely everything you need is in this kit and the dvd and chart included are of great use. the dvd also covers other methods of screen printing. for anyone looking to get started this kit is a must!

Great for beginner

The BEST hobby for young and old. I made my first screen and customized Tshirt within 24 hours. Taught my 11 year old daughter and she now has her own small T-shirt business going...

100% would recommend

This is awesome but you will not be able to make a design first try. It takes time to learn! Super fun!

A little expensive, but contains everything you need

Worked great to make some cheap tie-dye shirts for a handful of people to attend an event. Buying the kit and the shirts meant we spent a lot less than having a local shirt printer do it for us.
