hi susugetah, i got a blok made from a friend and i tried to do some silkscreen with it using rubber ink.
my question; how come the t-shirt somehow is "lekat" together with the blok and this eventually damages the print on the tee. you know, texture isn't perfect.

is it wet when you put it on the shirt ? this always happen when you over put the rubber ink on the wood block and as you pull the ink onto your silkscreen wood block it'll leak and bleed on the shirt.

it's wasn't wet so i assumed i put too much ink on the block?
HAHAHAh I got lazy and used an iron-on paper for my project. Malu malu.. but I have high hopes for my new budding -not-yet-start Tshirt business now. Must start my journey to con school kids into buying my stuff.
Project ? School assignment ? That's uncool , con school kids into buying your stuff ? You should be ashamed of yourself.

*UPDATE How to silkscreen without lightbox ? silkscreen frame , rm4.50 for a3 for the silk , rm5.90 from kamdar
fabric paint rm2 also can get photo emulsion vision art rm25 plus sensitizer rm6.50
nope , no need. if theres any error , the screen still can be used if youre still confuse , you can look for the video in youtube ! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cnu1GICScks
you use normal paper and cooking oil ! yeah you can make diy lightbox , i use two thick silkscreen frame to make mine. dont bother asking other lowyat forumers for help with the lightbox , i did once and they started bragging about them making lightbox and obviously not helping me with my lightbox. i got very irritated.
Anyway lol out of topic , in the end i made my own lightbox with only rm30 i think. or you can get the vision art lightbox for rm95
i use my own used silkscreen frame to combine and made a frame out from it and i use a flat piece of wood so i can put my ringlight to it, the glass costed me around rm12 , the ringlight around rm10 ( rm8 for the ring light ) and most of the stuff i found around the house hahahaha basically i just korek and use whatever i have.
quite mafan tho , but it's fun makng your own lightbox good luck !
This is photo emulsion , i recommend socomask , ( its the black container , the emulsion is purple ) I bought the emulsion from somewhere in kl i cant remember ._. and the green bottle , the emulsion is in red. the red version is good , but make sure your silk have smaller holes. lol must use expensive silk.I'll upload the other picture later. LATEST DESIGN : you guys can post up your artwork here also ! me wanna seee ! Latest work by one of the silkscreening students here in lowyat WELLDONE !
kain jenis ape kah ? yang di stappler pada frame tu?
nama kain dia silk , tapi bukan jenis silk yang licin. ni macam benda tapis tepung gandum.
kat kamdar ada jual
ok . tapi saya rasa org kat kamdar ipoh nie bengap2 skit.
sebab i pernah try wat dulu. tapi bila i apply emulsion kat kain yg mcm jaring. emulsion tebus dan byk yang meleleh keluar.. after i nak cuci frame. blok x jdi. abis terkopek semua ..
nasib jumpa toturial yg berguna nie. sempoi la ang pkai viper.. idea yg bagus.
aku rase ang la master of diy silkscreen. heehheh:p guide me ok.
mmg susugetah master diy..=) tapi lauyg lagi cun dah tgk lightbox dia..hehe Btw lauyg i miss this topic la..=) dah tak keje and now study so takda masa nak tgk thread ni..
Btw nanti kalau i ada masa i akan snap pics kat my printing workshop and upload it soon..
My printing workshop located at Seremban kinda jauh nak pergi..=(
