Manual cylindrical screen printer

Mason jar printing

[@rocksteadydesignprint]

Genius DIY setup!!!

[@alamrayabatu]

Thanks dude for sharing this awesome methode!!!

[@CatspitProductions]

I like it. Looks like it could fit any cylindrical object within a certain size. Very cool. Yeah a belt dryer for glasses would speed things up a lot. Come get some Catspit~!

[@berardiracing92]

CatspitProductions Thanks for the comments. We can print anything from pens to growlers. I like your videos as well. They helped me when we were starting out. Good information!

[@CatspitProductions]

You're welcome. That's very cool! Thanks for watching my videos. Glad I could help out. I was actually looking at this and wondering if you wanted to build them for me to sell... LOL. It's a nice simple design and it may have a market. I get asked a lot about this type of printing due to my plastic bottle experiment video printing only with a screen. These days I sell a lot of screen printing equipment. Wanna build one for me to make videos with and see if anyone wants to buy? Is it hard to build, maintain, operate? Just throwing it out there ;)

Thanks Kim, with the responses I've received maybe I should produce a few. We make our own tools out of necessity and because we have the ability to do so. Just finished a manual screen stretcher that works mint. Will have a new video up soon so stay tuned.

This (and everything about this video) is genius! One of the best DIY vids on here for sure. Thank you so much for making it 🙏 So question - since this video was made 3 years ago, are you still getting all your materials (glass primer, epoxy and glass paint) from Inkcup?

[@berardiracing92]

Yes, After much trial an error i have found they have the best, most durable products. If you need any help, let me know what you're printing on and i can steer you in the right direction. Inkcups has a good description of what inks to use on what substrates.

[@berardiracing92]

Check out "Inkcups.com" They have the best of everything.

[@bexmi]

Just enjoyed your video. Question. You prewashed glass with alcohol to de-grease. What did you prime it with? I loved the video.

[@berardiracing92]

Rebecca Miller Thanks for your interest. The "Primer" goes on like any type of cleaner. Use a saturated rag and wipe the glass. The supplier calls it primer but I don't think it's anything special. The ink can still be scratched off if you try. Next we are going to try Pyrosil, which is a flame treatment. Will post another video when we do. Anyone with any suggestions would be appreciated.

Fantastic design! What are the components that the jar rests directly on? Are they ordinary washers?

[@berardiracing92]

Cameron Pearce The rollers are steel roller bearings with 1/4" centers on threaded rod. Nuts on either side of the bearings to hold them in place. These are fully customizable by size and configuration depending on the size and shape of the glass.

[@colinschabel]

How does the jar spin? Is it just the moving screen against the Mason jar? Is that enough to make the jar spin?

[@berardiracing92]

Correct. The screen rotates the glass as it moves.

[@luiscreamer97]

great video, can you tell me what kind of ink do you use and if you add a glue to the ink?

[@berardiracing92]

Ink is from INKCUPS.COM. Check their lineup. They have inks for all substrates. The one i use for glass is the CG series and clean the glass with primer first

[@safetydown]

John you mentioned using a primer on the glass before printing. What exactly is the name of the product from Inkcups that you use?

[@berardiracing92]

I used the PP series primer but I think that may be for plastic. Contact them directly and they will help you with what you need as their products may have changed. I use CG series ink with 1000 HGL hardener. I have some glasses that I use every day and go through the dish washer, for 8 years now and still perfect.

[@rwb5688]

How much can I get one for?

[@theredmaster_superbee]

friend, with all your experience ... do you think it is possible or feasible to be able to stamp a bottle completely ... that is 360 ° in practically 100% of the circumference of the bottle to try to use up to three colors? .. do you think it is possible or is it a total disaster? Thank you,

[@berardiracing92]

Absolutely. You would have to stop your rotation just short of the image to prevent smudging. 3 colors would be a little challenging depending on the design but quite doable.

[@DavidRamos-xs9ug]

Hi great machine, what kind of ink are you using for the glass? I just subscribed.

[@berardiracing92]

To be honest, I'm not really sure. It was recommended by the supplier for best results. I also clean the glass with 96% IPA before I wipe with primer. the results are excellent so I don't mess with success. Thanks for your interest.

[@Unherd1]

Can you explain the mechanics of your squeege fill apparatus. Love this machine you’ve built here.

[@berardiracing92]

CG series ink from INKCUPS NOW.

[@JulioMoncayo]

Can you do multi color on this set up, putting different screen?

[@berardiracing92]

You can do multi color as long as you have a reference point to start with. I use a line on the glass as a reference point so the image is centered in between the lines. Do the same for the next color. The ink starts to set up in minutes so I would do a print over before the underbase cures.

[@JulioMoncayo]

Berardi Racing Thank you , by any chance did you ever get the plan for the set up to built this ? Or are you selling it ?

[@jtv327]

Can I use a heat gun instead of an oven?

[@berardiracing92]

You don't actually have to use any heat at all. You can air dry over a few days so any type of heat would be beneficial. The steady heat of an oven just makes the ink more durable. Don't use your household oven if you decide to bake.

Scratch resistance? I tried maribu and it scratches off with a fork.

[@berardiracing92]

FEN CHIANG I had the same problem with Maribu. I did a lot of testing and INKCUPS came out on top. If you bake the glass to cure it, it's pretty strong. I have some glasses I put through the dishwasher 100 times and it still holds up. You could scratch it off with a knife if you wanted to but if you don't, it will last. If you went to a bar or someplace that has printed glassware, you will find most of their products will scratch off ( I try it everywhere I go) INKCUPS sells to Discount Mugs, if that helps. If you buy the CG Series, use the reducer and the primer.
