Screen printing is a printing technique that uses a woven mesh to support an ink-blocking stencil. if you are supplying the garments) there is a minimum requirement of 50 units. Selling t shirts can be a satisfying and lucrative exercise but you need to prepare well or things will go wrong. When designing for screen printing one has to consider the end result of what the print will look like or what you want to achieve. Screen printing is not like digital printing as it is done in stages, thus the artwork needs to be prepared differently. If your design includes fonts and you’re using a vector program, always covert to curves. If you have a physical sample of the t shirt, do a print out and position it on the actual t shirt. Never use the colours on screen as a reference because the printer’s screen may have a different setting/ calibration. You will be charged for setting up and positive costs but it’s always better to do 2 samples. Don’t let the excitement of doing a run make you cut corners. Print 2 samples and if you are happy with both of them, let the printer keep one and you the other. Need some NOS pumped into your veins to remind you of how thrilling life can be? Well all you need is R1070, a change of underwear (or two) and before you know it, you could be hurling yourself out of a plane in the beautiful, picturesque Robertson in the Western Cape. Put everything into perspective after your first jump and when you get back to the grindstone or feel under pressure, simply reminisce about the time you were floating 10 000 feet above the beautiful farm tapestries of Robertson. From high up there everything seems small, literally and figuratively. It is a sports club which is owned and operated by its members on a volunteer basis. Over the years the club has strived to promote excellence in the sport of skydiving. From the first stumbling attempts at CReW back in the day (ask Rod Baker to tell you his war stories around the fire some night) to the appearance of two homegrown skydivers in the skysurfing event at the International X-Games, we’ve always been keen to test the new disciplines and perfect the old ones. Here’s a great way to save on those once-off jobs if you’re outsourcing the making of positives for screen printing. They also used positive films, but a much cheaper version that can be printed from a normal printer. So you’re interested in screen printing as a hobby/ business but don’t know where to start.
