I’ve grown use to how Lee shoots and edits over the 5 years I’ve been watching his channel and I was biased at first but I’m loving how this is being shot and edited it’s similar but different.

[@leestuart38]

Glad to hear man. I love the change and the direction things are going as we refine it

[@distinctperformancellc]

Wet on wet print came out sick! Love the idea with the mixing cup holder. Let us know how it worked out.

[@sandersakkee9284]

Awesome to see so much content coming from you. Lovin it.

[@leestuart38]

We're just getting started 🤘🏻

[@jmpaul7]

Your channel is always my go-to when learning new tips and tricks for printing, but I also love seeing all of the little space savers that you’ve implemented over the years (cutting foam to hold the ink cups = 🤯) Simple solution and super clean looking! Keep doing what you’re doing man!

[@leestuart38]

Always happy to hear that, thanks!

[@Tim.McElheny]

Thanks for posting

[@Smallbore2wheels]

Dude I remember the original print of that shirt in the basement!

[@colinhuggins6164]

For a shiny black on black look you can also use a clear ink (something with some body, doesn't need to be a gel). The use of a clear will also give the print a small level of depth, similar to stacking color and clear in a paint job.

[@edgarrivera532]

amazing print @lee Stuart..

[@mattsconberg8225]

solution for tipping mixing cups - use wide mouth uline mixing jars with screw on lids - wider yet shorter (good for stacking space) and wont tip over with a spatula while empty. 👍 come in clear or white - s-22855 / s-22856

[@leestuart38]

I'm not a fan of those jars because they take up so much space when empty,and they cost a lot. The paint style cups can stack inside of each other which is a lot better for my small space, and they're cheap. Plus I had issues with those jars cracking over time when I used them a few years ago.

[@luiscarlosbrenes9579]

Round cut a magnet sheet and stick it to the bottom of the cups.. like the ones on the back of souvenir fridge magnets.. maybe would work 🫡

[@JaxonRyan_Creative]

I just picked up 12 of the U-Line cups for $20

[@mattsconberg8225]

@@JaxonRyan_Creative yeah man, pricing is actually the same as other mixing cups really - hope they work out for ya, I love them, and the look.

[@crackshotscreenprinting]

always great content, thanks bro

[@leestuart38]

I appreciate that 👊🏻

[@monstamemorabilia1447]

Another banger video guys 👌👌

[@leestuart38]

Thank you 🙌

[@kelleycoon2070]

Your little cleaner holders you should the same thing with your paint on that little table. you did foam. there’s a little lip underneath that little table that you can fasten it to.

[@montymartin2932]

getting stuff done!

[@leestuart38]

Always 🤘🏻

[@Factory928AC]

Movie quality shiiiettttt 😮‍💨🤟🏽🔥

[@leestuart38]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[@thenotorious989]

Shit gets better every week, fucking unreal. Keep it up!

[@leestuart38]

Thanks!

[@matthewmanning8413]

Can we get a bonus video, with all of these improvements, in quick cuts

[@leestuart38]

We can definitely do that eventually once we have enough to fill out a whole video

[@tylergiesa5318]

Where can you get that table cart you have for inks and squeegees?

[@gelogonzales8950]

thinking of under magnet on paint container bro

[@TRexTravis]

How did i not realize that you are a Lefty??? Thats awesome! Team Lefty! 👊

[@leestuart38]

Lefty life 🤘🏻

[@fartnyaface]

Put app tape down on the ss table it will protect it and once finished just rip it up and repeat.

[@leestuart38]

Turns out ink just wipes right off the foam so it's not an issue

[@DrawinIntrvrt]

OG’s remember this job from the manual days! 16:17

[@leestuart38]

It's been a while! Cool to revisit it and see how much everything has improved

[@JaxonRyan_Creative]

Thursday is the 4th for us down here, are you going to shift the Rogue Report to a different day or is it a take or leave it kind of deal.

[@leestuart38]

It'll still be on Thursday

[@TrueArtPassion]

What Meshcount do you use for the Underbase this two Wet on Wet Prints? 🙏🏼

[@leestuart38]

These were both done with a 150 thin thread base and 225 for the top colors

[@TrueArtPassion]

@@leestuart38 thank you! I use a 157 thin thread mesh for the underbase, but unfortunately it doesn't cover very well with a one hit pass, so the top color unfortunately always lets the black of the T-shirt shine through. I stamp the underbase and I work with the Wilflex colors. I work on a manuell hand press, Can you give me a tip please?

[@michaelapplewhite4715]

Do you stamp and use roller?

[@leestuart38]

We use the stampinator most of the time, but I do use the roller for certain things.

[@2011cardinal]

Do you know what the noise levels are in the shop? Seems quite loud when stuff is running and youre recording.

[@leestuart38]

I have no idea but it can get pretty loud in there with the air compressor and embroidery machine running together

[@JeffreyHammerCam]

Throw a magnet in the bottom of the cups, easy to pick up and won't be top heavy and you'll never need to try to clean that foam

[@leestuart38]

That was my first thought because I love magnets, but they sit on a lot of non magnetic surfaces too and the magnets made them more unstable in those cases when I tried it

[@JeffreyHammerCam]

@@leestuart38 Later in the video I heard you say "stainless steel" but the foam looks great cut on the laser, nice work!!

[@RyanvsYouTube]

Great shit keep it up! Then hire me HAHA!

[@leestuart38]

If you're local I'm always hiring

[@RyanvsYouTube]

@@leestuart38 I’m sadly not in in Texas but you seem like your a kick ass boss, I’ve been a director for a couple years and company, we print for Dallas Cowboys, Buccees, Sony and ect.

[@scottcerk5959]

How many square feet is your printshop? It’s sweet.

[@leestuart38]

Thanks! It's pretty small but it gets the job done (that's what he said). It's 1250 square feet

[@Alexvenlo]

Hear me out: Watercooled palets for wet on wet. :D

[@TG.34295]

🏴‍☠🏴‍☠🏴‍☠

[@crackshotscreenprinting]

I would cover it in pallet tape, gets dirty, pull it and replace it

[@leestuart38]

Turns out the foam doesn't soak up ink or stain, it just wipes right off

[@EGOALTER-jz5qo]

Lee Stuart is tht boss that says “ill just do it so itll get done and be right” not cool

[@leestuart38]

My employees definitely would have something to say about how wrong that statement is lol. But at the same time if someone can't figure something out or do it to my shops standard, of course I'm going to hop in and do it. I'm the most skilled person in this building 🥴
