good afternoon I entered this site that you sent me .. come to press hopkins 250 6*4 we need one that is for 8 screens and 8 berths we talk like that in Brazil
Cool setup! I use the same GG fusion system, but with a WB discharge base. I find the high solid acrylics have the same heavy feel as plastisol. Discharge feels like nothing. I've only got two FN inks, white and black. The cleanup is what made me go water based.
@@startupscreenprinting If you don't have one yet I definitely recommend a goof gun. (spot remover) I've used it for so many things I didn't think was possible. It even took dried glue off a couple of new screens I bought.
Yeah we used to use one a lot at the print shop I worked at. Thankfully I haven’t had a need for one yet but might be good to have around just in case!
that fn ink would be helpful ill take it, awsome set up im just starting to organize my garage tight space due to that my daughter parks her car in the garge
Thanks man!! That means a lot. I've been watching your videos for over a year now and I love the content you put out there. You're one of the guys in the print industry that inspired me to do the same!
Thanks Maximum! I got them from Sam's Club. All of the tables, the workbench, and the cabinets are all from Sam's. They're the Seville Classics brand. I love them.
Great setup! Two questions for you. What water based ink brands would you recommend starting out with? Also,what method do use to cure your water based prints? I know you touched on it briefly in the video, but can you maybe do a video in the future to show your method?
I love the green galaxy line of inks from Ryonet. I have a flash and I add 1.5% warp drive to the ink before I print. I’ll definitely do videos to explain and show my process! Thanks for the questions!
This was great! Thanks for showing us your shop. Newbie printer here as and love seeing a smaller shop out of the home. I only have a 4/1 Riley 250 out of my garage and would love your press someday. Curious about the waterbase printing....why only waterbase and what kind of shirts do you print, or should I say what kind of clientele? I would LOVE to only use waterbase simply for the chemical aspect and pipes for my house. New subscriber--keep it up! :)
Thanks Heather! I’ve just never been a fan of how plastisol feels on a nice triblend shirt. Always felt like it was ruining it. So I went water based since it soaks into the fibers and leaves a soft breathable print. Plus like you said I didn’t want the chemicals that are required with plastisol. As far as client types, really it’s a wide range. I print for schools, churches, non profits, restaurants and coffee shops, sports teams, local trades like a painting company, and some retail brands. So it’s pretty much every kind of customer :) thanks for subscribing! Let me know if you have more questions about anything!
@@startupscreenprinting Okay, this is great to hear! I feel like the client base I want to be after is like you so it gives me hope to get into water based. I hope you really show us on your channel how to print with waterbase and all the ins and outs. I would LOVE this! It would give me the confidence to try it. I'm so nervous because everyone says it dries in the screen so fast. Also, curious as to your favorite shirts. Thanks again for the personable channel--excited for more content! :)
Thanks! You can definitely do water base! Don’t listen to the naysayers, it’s easier than you think. I’ll definitely show all about printing with it! My fav shirt is the bella canvas 3413 triblend and it’s what 75-80% of my customers order. 😎
@@startupscreenprinting Thanks for the link. I'm looking for something to pull some light smoke or vapours from using my flash and conveyor in my basement shop; is this why you use it? or mainly to keep dust down? One more question, does it pull the smell of any ink cleaners out of the air?
@@TerritorialMech I use it for dust and lint. I'm not sure how well it would work for smoke/vapor but you could test for sure. I don't have a lot of unpleasant smells from cleaners as I don't have to use harsh cleaners for water based ink.
good afternoon here in Brazil materials to work with silk screen are very expensive, and some materials were left to be desired. how to equip the carousel

On the 300 page, you can select the model you want, up to 8 colors and 6 platens.
have you ever had any issues using comet white water based ink? i just purchased a quart and when I received it, it was so thick and very hard to use, it barely pushed through the screen (156 20x24). I had to add a bunch of water into the quart just to be able to use it.
@@startupscreenprinting I’m working on setting up a shop in my garage. Since I can’t make changes like yourself (rental) would you recommend draining water into a bucket from the washout booth? And then pouring that down the drain? Or how would you go about that??
If you’re printing plastisol I definitely wouldn’t pour it down the drain. If you can get a filtration system that’s best to run it through that first and then down a drain.
The site I used was aacbid.com but I've not seen anymore screen print equipment sales on there since I got mine. They do mostly restaurants but when I got mine they happened to be doing a full print shop. It was a gold mine and I wish I could have afforded more equipment but getting the press was still an incredible deal.
Very nice workshop good 👍
Thanks!
Killer basement setup man. I'm no stranger to building a shop in a basement, you nailed it. Looking forward to seeing what you do 👊🏻
Whoa thanks Lee! Just trying to be half as helpful as you have been to me and many others! Keep inspiring bro. Thanks for the kind words!

Thanks! I use an Epson artisan 1430. I have a video about it on my channel :)
Nice set up. Can i ask what kind of air filtration you have there.
Thanks! It’s a WEN filter I got on Amazon: amzn.to/3QnxgBZ

Where did you get the cabinets that are on either side of your ink mixing station?
Sam’s club. Seville Classics is the brand. The cabinets, ink station work table, and all my other tables are all from them
good afternoon
here in Brazil materials to work with silk screen are very expensive,

how to equip the carousel
I get all of my supplies from Ryonet and I believe they do have international shipping options but you have to spend at least $5,000 USD.

have you ever had any issues using comet white water based ink? i just purchased a quart and when I received it, it was so thick and very hard to use, it barely pushed through the screen (156 20x24). I had to add a bunch of water into the quart just to be able to use it.
Yes! I have a solution for that! I have a video to post in the next couple of days so keep an eye out!
@@startupscreenprinting lifesaver!!!
I may have totally misunderstood you, but are you using a pump to remove the water from your washout booth?
There’s a sump pump in the filtration system below the washout booth.
@@startupscreenprinting I’m working on setting up a shop in my garage. Since I can’t make changes like yourself (rental) would you recommend draining water into a bucket from the washout booth? And then pouring that down the drain? Or how would you go about that??
If you’re printing plastisol I definitely wouldn’t pour it down the drain. If you can get a filtration system that’s best to run it through that first and then down a drain.
@@startupscreenprintingGotcha! I’ll get one of those from Ryonet. Thanks man! Just subbed 🤙
@AlviTheOne happy to help!
What auction has Riley Hopkins Presses?😮
I got lucky, It’s the only one I’ve ever seen at auction.
what auction site is best for equipment
The site I used was aacbid.com but I've not seen anymore screen print equipment sales on there since I got mine. They do mostly restaurants but when I got mine they happened to be doing a full print shop. It was a gold mine and I wish I could have afforded more equipment but getting the press was still an incredible deal.
YOU STILL HAVE THAT FM INK, I"LL TAKE IT, I"m JUST STARTING MY PRINT SHOP AND HAVE NO INK YET.
Sorry, Chris. It already got claimed.
good afternoon
my name is weslley i'm brazilian.
how do you buy a carousel like this in the usa
A press like mine, the Riley Hopkins 300 8x6, can be purchased from Ryonet: ssp.ink/riley-300
Where does your waste water go? Do you filter?
Yup, it all runs through an Sgreen Filtration System
