Dude, that transfer tape trick is mind blowing

[@sandersakkee9284]

yeah that is a very nice trick.

Try it with some clear packing tape, it’s a game changer in Setups 💪🏼

Damn man, watching you printing is like Print-gasm. awesome stuff.

The perfection usually presented in your videos are top notch but I can honestly say I do love seeing the struggle and the imperfections within the process a bit more. Keep up the damn thing man

[@leestuart38]

Always gotta keep it real 👍🏻

[@LazzaraFPV]

Awesome to see someone else using the transfer tape. Changed the game for me about 4 years ago. So damn helpful! Rad to see the colab bro! 🤟

[@leestuart38]

Been using that since day one, works like a charm 👌🏻

[@ministryofshirts]

WHOA! that neon pops right off the top!

[@leestuart38]

It came out so dope

[@Bad_InfluenceTV]

You nailed it with the neon/safty color issue. So relatable. 👍

[@leestuart38]

I need to line up a video to test all the neons out there

[@jasonkaz6]

Always extremely appreciate the realness and showing you're not perfect. Getting better by learning from mistakes is key. Look into OneStroke ELT series inks for opacity. We love them.

[@leestuart38]

Haven't tried one stroke yet but I'd like to give it a shot

[@amirbeigali4154]

Sick with the transfer tape. Had a guy show something similar just by using clear tape 😎 watching your videos keeps me motivated to get a manual of my own ! Great video Lee 🏆🏆🏆

[@leestuart38]

Yup I've seen people use packing tape and it works, this is just faster and more efficient

[@sandersakkee9284]

"Fucking up is what i'm doing". HAHAHAHA loving ❤ this video man, can't wait for the other vids to come online.👍

Holy smokes are those dispensers sharp - definitely nicked myself pretty good before. Nice video fellas!

[@leestuart38]

They're insane! Might as well have been made for cutting leather belts instead of tape

[@tryplecrown]

Your clamp/spreader idea on the side of the screen frame is greatness. I'm stealing that one. Oh, and I do use your LS Sig Squeeg w/ 80 and 90 dur material with a push stroke. Great for clearing thicker inks. And Ryonet DOES need to make you a "MINI" version in a 6-8". Good stuff bro! Keep it up!

[@leestuart38]

Hopefully we can make that mini one happen 🤘🏻

Today's episode was brought to you by the letter FVCK! Right Lee? awesome looking print.

[@leestuart38]

😂😂😂

[@mattsconberg8225]

Yo Lee, I’ve used clear packing tape as my clear film for base layer registrations like that. Every shop has packing tape, it’s also way cheaper, and a thinner material so you’re closer to the base you’re lining up too as well. Ol Florida Print Shop tricks 💪🏼

[@leestuart38]

Packing tape works too, this is just way faster and more efficient. I plan on making a video about this to cover both

[@JoshBraunz]

Seeing your design we've got this little Frankenstein popup kinder egg suprise toy or something like that at my warehousing job in front of the computer, reminds me of myself in my metaphorical rebirth I'm aloiiive

[@ninthcitydesign6746]

Love these videos, no one is perfect and in this industry we all fuck up sometimes ahahahaha

[@leestuart38]

You got that right

[@cheddilatouche4228]

Great content as always Lee, you need you create more weekly content, especially on the Roland! 😊

[@leestuart38]

I plan to be back to weekly content in the new year now that all the problems in the new shop are clearing up

[@dwlouden]

Great vid as always! I used Wilflex Super Flourescent Yellow (230) on a Quick White (160) base not too long ago and was surprised by the opacity, looked great. Might be worth looking into if you ever need that colour again.

[@leestuart38]

Might have to check that out. Quick white is my standard white in here 👍🏻

[@Demon2049]

Had to order one of these bad boys. Thanks bro!

[@salvadorcervantes134]

Saw your branding labels. What printing platform do you use? I currently use DTF, it is starting to be tedious cause we operate with Apple and Epson has to perform two individual prints to achieve the DTF print. On a windows the rip software has been updated to achieve this in one print job.

[@Almightees70]

Union Maxopake line has some neon colors that are more opaque.

[@leestuart38]

I tried the yellow, it wasn't great. I have some new stuff here from a few other brands to try out. I'm determined to find one that I like haha

[@Almightees70]

@@leestuart38 Gotcha…yeah the lighter colors are more problematic in the opacity department. Love your content by the way!!

[@Tim.McElheny]

I printed with the Vivid Neon Green last week. It was 3 shirts so I didn’t make an underbase. I had to flash 3 times and put down 4 hits using a 156 thin thread screen. Definitely using an underbase next time

[@leestuart38]

Never skip the underbase

[@RVAMotorsports]

I remember when Lee used to ride motorcycles

[@leestuart38]

I remember being broke and hating making content too

[@RVAMotorsports]

@Lee Stuart I truly didn't know you hated making that content. You made awesome content and were really quite inspiring. Please don't get me wrong, I'm glad to see you kicking ass now. The apparel stuff is just over my head lol.

[@shelbypreklas3740]

Learned a lot from this channel! My Bushiso tee is crooked AF tho. 😢

[@rbboom1513]

I'm quite sure that Union makes opaque neons.

[@rgfowler784]

You made me feel bad about using films to register my screens lol. To be honest I usually nail it first try using my films. I might give this registration technique shot to see how it works out.

[@leestuart38]

Films can't account for screen tension, that's the only problem with it to me.

[@twisterinigo804]

for chest prints, i used scotch tape in my thai reg screen line table press.. happy printing dude

[@leestuart38]

That works, so does packing tape. This is definitely a lot more efficient

What kind of tape do you use on the shirt side of the screen to block out your registration marks?

Always look forward to your videos. Where did you purchase the pallet tape dispenser and roller?

[@reyniercarbonell7348]

Where do you buy your blank apparel sir ?

[@vitorsantos5461]

I was surprised to hear about stencil drag! I think there are only a handful of videos on youtube that cover this "problem". It can be a real nightmare when dealing with inks of different viscosities on the same print... I print automotive parts where I have to be 0.1mm accurate and all of them are backlit so there is no room for error. stencil drag is one of the biggest problems in my screen printing art

[@leestuart38]

It's an issue that doesn't get covered enough. I think I need to make a video diving deeper into it

[@AlviTheOne]

Is it okay that I’m registering my first screen to the film taped on the pallet? And then using your method of clear vinyl transfer tape. Or is there a better method that doesn’t involve a PRU system?

[@leestuart38]

There's no need to register your first screen at all. Line it up straight to your pallet tape lines and away you go 👍🏻

Try heating the pallettape before removing. We do a couple of rounds of preheat and in a removing the tape is a breeze.

Why wouldnt you jist hit the neon yellow twice?

No matter how many times you hit a transparent ink, it will remain transparent. Plus it's highly inefficient and creates an unnecessary thick print
