not sure yet, tconn. Have some quality control issues to work out then I will be peddling them. Glad to see you are interested though. It means a lot when you guys give me props on this stuff. Keeps me going.

it feels great to get feedback from NTers, especially if it's good :)

my apartment is becoming overrun with misprints!

hott, i need to learn that shit.
i want to but it seems like a major pain in the ass to expose the screens.. i've done the printing before.. :/
- mrdobolina0
sauerbraten, I expose my own screens and it isnt that bad. But, many local screen printing shops will expose screens for you for a fee. I know a few guys that use that method. I worked in a print shop for years, so I would rather expose my own screens. Im pretty comfortable doing it.

sorry about my photography btw. Not my strong suit.

very nice Dobs, i can see you worked it out really good!
when are you gonna print one of Shaft and send it to me?
- mrdobolina0
a series of shaft, superfly and dolemite wouldnt be a bad idea. I was also thinking about a series of movie killers, like Jason, Freddy Krueger and Michael Meyers. sets of three really interests me.
- mrdobolina0
you could "blood splatter" the killer set and it would be neat.
- Jaline0
you should. and you should use some real, fresh, tasty blood.
sorry, I'm tired. I'm going to sleep for real now.

looking forward see more of it.. i'm currently setting up a little printplace for myself in a garage i rented, should be fun getting started again, havn't done it in years and been meaning to do it after i started coming in here, but finally it looks like it going somewhere..
did you get the "feel" for the presure you have to put in and all that right away or did you have to start from scrath again?
- mrdobolina0
I got it back right away, my problem was in trying to judge how much 'off contact' I should go. So that after you run the print, the screen 'pops' off of the substrate that you are printing on. to keep it from smudging and ghosting a second image. I'm still messing with it. I have to say that after 8 years of my only outlet being on the computer, this is quite liberating.
