dang that's bananas that looks awesome
we got some pretty cool prints that we're working on today
mario is currently renting out one of the screens over there
perfection we've got everything set up on press we're having an issue
with this gray screen here part of the font up at the top did not rinse out
so we're having to do it look like doo doo we weren't gonna run it so
we had to fix that i'll show you what the print looks like here's one of the first test prints
we're just kind of going around going through the routine of setting everything up
running off some test prints on some rag shirts here it's looking pretty good we did have to bump
the registration just a little bit nothing too serious and we were noticing there was a
spot here in this r a couple of them what we're working with is a white base we're flashing it
then we're hitting it with black hitting it with red a golden yellow then we have
a kind of simulated process purple here turquoise gray and then we're topping it off with the white
this is a pretty good sized print it's 15 inches wide by 17 inches high so we're just about maxing
out our largest print size on the press i think it's a pretty cool design it's going on these
kind of light yellow pale yellow t-shirts they're really nice i've got ink on me so
i don't want to fuss with it too much i don't even know what brand they are all it has is a
tag on it that says what size they are they came in some poly bags which i have tossed out but
they feel really nice these are for an organic coffee shop so once this screen finishes drying
we'll toss that screen on do a couple more test prints
tape off our registration marks and we'll show you everything in action and before i forget
every single one of these screens are a 230 with the exception of the gray i thought that
even though we're redoing this gray we'll go ahead and use a 305 just so it's putting down
a little bit less of that gray into the fonts that way that font kind of pops just a little
more even though it's supposed to be kind of like a 50 60s vintage kind of ad looking thing but i
think that will help some instead of having to go back and separate things you can you can kind
of tweak things with the amount of pressure that your press is putting down or if you're printing
manually how much you're putting down onto that squeegee how much pressure you're putting down
that changes things a lot too along with your mesh count and other little things
like that paulo's out here just chilling in the sun it's a really nice day today
we finally have ourselves some nice weather it's about 75 degrees outside
not too humid watch those ac guys are gonna come michelle's cars parked in front of their
loading door i'm sorry what i said please don't film me i'm not i'm filming your computer screen
watching it stall stop it meant that i don't pick on you yes you do i don't stop see what you're
talking about please oh yeah there's a little hole in the screen that mario's fixing so we take taken
down the screen we're gonna toss it in register this bad boy up print ourselves some t-shirts make
some money yeah exactly that's what we're here for to make some of the nero and make some monero
what you're not here to be my friend i think i don't know i thought you were my friend
that's disappointing no apollo is your friend you bring him treats every morning
so we're just letting the shirt go around
printing everything and then this is where merrick mario stops it
we'll send it back over to yeah leave a message mario's not here is it number eight or seven okay
yeah i'm not a fan of those registration marks i'm obviously the other ones because then you're
at opposite ends of the corner yep so i had to go to wayne's shop yesterday i had it all separated
thought he had the wayne's orange start but thought he had
photoshop illustrator did not so i essentially had to reset this one out in separation studio
which isn't a big deal but i'm just not used to these registration marks that it
puts on it not a fan of it because it's just the diagonal corners however it'll get the job done
all right let's all right the safety bar
and then we'll turn these back on do ourselves a little bit of a test print just table that down
i had head number nine open
all right let's hit play
do the white let's see what we got i'm sure it'll be a little bit lighter
well then it didn't have anything building up on the yeah i look at it like that okay
um yeah i mean it looks good the
i'm not gonna fuss with that that's not too big of a deal i mean we couldn't move this
over just a hair but i think it it looks fine that's being really fussy about it and then i
guess we can just move the the white base down because it's peeking out just a little bit
what do you think mario i think it's the raid you think it's the red
i think it's the white because when i printed on the palette i think it probably stretched
that string a little bit probably see i screw up too look at that look printed right on the
pallet so what did we decide we're moving the white down the white base all right yeah okay
sounds like a wiener here
move it down just a touch
i'm gonna move it down just a touch
you're wearing the mask because the allergies you're wearing the mask because you're doing
the right thing mario so our white went down we're hitting that twice flashing
it it's probably about 2 35 for about three seconds until the palette reaches that center
we're hitting the black twice just to make sure some of that black text just kind of really
fills in the net of the t-shirt i'm sure we could get away with just doing it once if it didn't have
that black deck probably would just hit it once probably increase the flood speed on it
so we're doing the red once we're gonna do the red excuse me the golden yellow
once as well and then we're doing the purple twice just to really kind of pump up that text over here
and there is that purple in the sleeve of this chimpanzee here we're hitting that down twice we
got turquoise this essentially is kind of going in the coffee pot there some other little areas
and then we have our gray going down which we switched to a 305 sure 230 would have
done just fine but it's trying to reduce the amount of gray that's going down get our white
hidden ones on the 230 and there we are move the white down a little too far overshot it
so we're gonna adjust that and then we'll be right back
i think we'll just tape off these registration marks and we'll get it after mario is taping off
the last screen i think we're going to run off one more front what do you think should
we just run off one of the shirts mario let's do it yeah we're gonna do it so let's run off
one of the actual production shirts see how it comes out that's a good size sprint right there
so i set it up towards where it should just be three just let the collar drop off should be
should be good to go
we're gonna let this thing run around
slowed down down a little too much like we decided just to do the white ones which
we could probably produce the flash temp
that's just because we apparently it's a 195 196 we're using
on the underbase i thought it was a t30
speed this up just a hair doing double stroke on the black once on the red these are 230s
got our golden yellow going down
our purple is still doing twice let's see if we
corrected some of the evenness of it and listen to very large orders about 36 of them
originally quoted it for five colors they wanted cmyk kind of insisted it but this will be
a much more consistent print using this method here our gray is going down last but not least
our white i want to slow that down just a little bit now let's see if we missed anything
dang that's bananas that looks awesome
he wants some more beef jerky we got the press warming up mario's tossing down some pallet tacks
as soon as the machine stops all the pallets are warmed up we're gonna go ahead and get after this
