( lightbox ) I'm not sure about the price as in total up but I think you can start silkscreening with less than rm100 if you diy the tools ( maybe less than that lol ) photo emulsion rm26 frame and silkscreen around RM7 ( The frame alone without the silk is rm4.50 A3 , and the silk you can buy in kamdar 1 metre for rm5.90 ) for the lightbox I use rm8 for the ring light , rm12 for the a2 glass , and other stuff. actually for squeegees you can use those vipers for car windows. or you can buy one from vision art , around rm95 - above for one A3 lightbox. Ive just realized how cold my reply is , hahahahaha good luck in trying ! Seem like a reasonable price. What is Photo Emulsion? Lol. Squeegee from the car viper? Why not the windows cleaner? Should be cheaper ;D I go conduct more reasearch on it first. I only student. Just want to make my own clothes. That say what I want.

BO093-- To be a creative person... wanna save money... u jus need to find something to replace things that not available... Like me... I'm only use about RM70 to but all the stuff... as i DIY many things like silk screen... i make it myself... since there is no tis thing in sarawak market... lightbox too... everything... haha... U jus need to understand the theory then u can do it ... and also... dun afraid to ask some stupid question here... haha ( like me ) !!! Only Rm70?! Nice. Now just to DIY it after School Test.
