Great informative video. Couple of questions if I can ask. What size deck (for the squeegee handle) do you typically use for the squeegee? Have you tried cutting the squeegee rubber so it follows the concave?
@ManakSkates4 күн бұрын
@@statenputnal1549 the bigger the deck, the better since we make decks over 10” wide. Never tried cutting the rubber but have seen it done. In all honesty, I’ve gone back to a stock flat squeegee and just push the ends into the board with my pinky’s.

how would you go about printing all over the board?
@ManakSkatesАй бұрын
You'd need a very large screen that curves to match the board kicks. Haven't done it yet, but I've seen it in action. If you search around on youtube, you can see folks doing it. I just don't have the space to store all of those uniquely shaped oversized screens.

if you print 2 colors, do you need to let the first color dry? i tried printing wet on wet and the second color kind of mixed with the first rather than sitting on top. but obviously you can't flash dry a skateboard or it will warp, so do you just have to let it air dry before doing the next layer?
@ManakSkates4 ай бұрын
With wood, wet on wet doesn’t work as well. I let fully dry before the next color

what about putting a base coat on the board? I got some BBS blanks, with just whatever random stain color happens to be on each one. For my design, I don't really want to print right on the stain, I'd rather have a solid base color that's the same on every board. Would you just tape off the sides and spray paint the base coat? Or brush it on or something? I imagine full-bleed printing a base layer with just a blank screen isn't an option because you wouldn't be able to reach all the edges due to the concave...
