My tip, avoid pull and push when squeezing, otherwise the paint can bleed under the mesh. Only squeeze in one direction. Normally you just flood the paint in one direction without pressure and then always squeegee it in the other direction with pressure.

Thats what I wanted to say too. The result will be much more precise: load the screen with color, then squeeze in the other direction. If you want to squeeze another time you should squeeze always in the same direction. Afterwards you will probably have a little bit of color below the screen that will make a not so sharp picture so put a normal sheet of paper squeeze without color to clean the screen and your ready for another result. What you were making with taped edge is what professionals do! But take a piece of cardboard with the same thickness of the result. Then it will be much easier to work.

You can print on the clear film so you know where your image is printing and then place whatever you are printing underneath it in the correct spot.

cool you got it to work, my attempts have not worked out -- the laser did not remove any material, upped the power and it barely removed anything,.. so weird.

Which xtool engraver are you using. 5w, 10w or 20w?

@begoodornotobe 3 ай бұрын

Moi aussi c'est ce que je voudrai savoir @dannyd5580, car je viens de démarrer avec le 20 w et je suis inquiète car la gravure n'est pas précise... et je viens de lire que le 10 w ou meme le 5 w seraient plus précis. J'aurai donc fait un mauvais choix ?

Hi! This is Dev from India and you are just great, I have a few questions for you. 1. the mesh used here are pre emulsified so does that mean you do not need to prepare the screen. 2. can i engrave with my 60 watt laser on to the screen and then what should be the ideal setting maybe trial and experiment?

Can the screen printer be used with the Xtool M1 engraver? I do not see the screen print option on the list of operations.

@KarleyHall 10 ай бұрын

It technically cannot… but I will be testing that!

When I went to X tool site they said the M1 can be used with the screen print

@@tinamarizetts6675 I’m looking at the site right now and it says the M1 and F1 are incompatible. Where are you seeing this info? I’ll let the xtool team know to adjust that if it’s on their site!
