BigScreen!

We have two fairly big screens here that make banners, flags, totally oversize tshirts, big posters and artwork all decidedly possible. One is a nice wide 43 mesh for printing on fabric, and the other is a yellowed 120 for paper prints. They're pretty big. This big:

Did we mention we like oversize prints? Probably. Well these screens have a maximum print area of 80cm x 45cm, and it's hard to help yourself from playing with them.

So, to burn a big screen you need a big acetate. Or, three acetates, some patience, and some cellotape.


Obviously when it comes to printing with this thing, the carousel is out of the question. We did our test-run just laid on a tabletop. No clamps or anything. Pure gnarly living-on-the-edge stuff, innit.


 And there you have it. Go big or go home.
