This is verbatim what I sent to Diego just the other day.
I would say you would need some screens:
http://victoryfactory.com/alumin…
18x20 at like 156 mesh count.and at least one squeegee that is at least 2 inches larger than your largest design
http://victoryfactory.com/squeeg…And probably some water-based inks
http://victoryfactory.com/inks.h…Those inks can be mixed to match colors.
Then you will need some photo emulsion
Probably ulano proclaim
http://victoryfactory.com/chemic…And some emulsion remover

Victory Factory Screen Reclaimer ConcentrateA Photoflood bulb
http://www.amazon.com/Eiko-120v-…A large piece of glass to fit inside of the 18x20 screen frame,
get that locally.These are decent plans for building a one-color press. I have one very similar at home
http://emilyowenartist.wordpress…You will also need tape and spray adhesive to stick theshirt to the platen on the press. Both can be gotten from Victory Factory also.
I hope this helps. If you get all of these things, you will have basically the same setup I have at home.
