This is what I like with this channel, even the simplest thing has its own systematic way of doing it. Thanks Cam!
Good tips Cam! I never worked in a print shop before I started mine 7-8 years ago. Loading correctly takes a lot of practice. I still wouldn't call myself proficient. Your grab is a bit different than mine, and I'm going to give it a shot. Very efficient!
so ive had a shop for about 30years, and now that i don't have enough help in the shop ,I'm doing shit i haven't done in well over 20+ years ...your vids have helped me get back in to the production ...thanks man!
Nicely done. very close to my method too... I do wish i had seen training on this topic before i started. I began with bad habits that I had to over come.
Karate Chops, I like the way that you explained it. Time for me to go practice that way. Thanks
Welcome back PIMP!
Thanks Cam! I need all the help i can get..
Awesome tips. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hey man, love your videos, just starting and learning a lot. Just watched your testing discharge red vid, and realized today was the 8th, so Happy Birthday!

how many t shirt i can print with 1kilogram plastisol link
@@nadimhassan6695 what's a kilogram?
First time I've seen this fine and important detail. Printing is easy, centering a shirt is an art!
Yea just grab a stack of shirts take a few hours and just practice the load with no prints over and over,
First prints I ever did were a 2 color... nailed the print, failed terribly at the loading, LOL.
every 8 shirts or so I have a load blunder. the more I print the more shirts in can load with out a oops.
thank you for the great tips
Just learning how to screen print. Just found your channel with loads of very useful info...Sweet!! Liked and subbed and great channel!

The mr miagi of screenprinting
Hey Print Life, I want to start printing on the lower right of a shirt. How would I set this up?
Cam! WTF is wrong with me dude lol I have been having issues for a while getting shirts straight on my pallets and I just re watched this, went out and Bam! 6 tries 6 straight shirts. I'm slow lol but I should have listened to you a long time ago. Not brand new to printing but obviously not the brightest hahaha thanks bro
Great tip!!!.from Agentina, Printfam
What size pallet are you using?
gotta load quicker than that on an auto.. but solid tips and tricks my dude. long time sub new commenter. i just vibe with your attitude so much man. you got the mind set and the vibe to take over printing. i hope to see you do so.
I have tried this and just have trouble. I have wood platens and wondering if aluminum platens would be a better option down the road. I have such a problem with getting them crooked. Any addition help??
Loading a shirt straight is a knack that you develop almost exclusively through practice. as for the pallets as long as you are registering the screen straight to the pallet it should not matter, unless each pallet has a different angle. I think aluminum pallets with precision cut adapters do help remove the variable. so in the long run you should strive for and upgrade in your equipment, but for now, use a square to make sure all your pallets have the same even angle. register you screen to the pallet, and you will have a good starting point.
@@ThePrintLife that's what I did last night for a couple of hours.. still getting the shirt on there with more on one side than the other. Not really crooked ...just off center.. thanks for your help I'll keep trying
Lock & Load 👕🔫⚡️🤘

This is a no brainier technic
Awesome tips. I just realized that I do take to long to load shirts. Can't believe I haven't thought about having the print side of the shirt down on the table to make loading faster. Thanks.👍👍
My two cents, I find that if I set the shirt print side up with the bottom opening of the shirt facing away while having a stack of shirts halfway off the cart, so the bottom is closer. Next, I pull the shirt from the bottom right and running your other finger next to the other and as you are turning and sliding your left-hand finger, opening the bottom wide enough to shove the shirt to the back of the platter. For shits and giggles, I tried to apply your technic but found it adds a second to the whole process, but I think with practice, yours should be just as fast. I hope this alternate technique helps.
great tip on one of the most important yet overlooked parts of the job. tanks brudder!
Great video!! A lot of us needed this one
Madison Smith very true
Knife hands, and Katate Chops
Thanks for this quick tip I'm always loading crooked and always getting caught up on the bracket. Keep it pimpin..lol
thanks a lot for that. I've just started my self and struggle with this, only have a single station press from ryonet but will definitely practice this technique.
Sshhhhweeeet tip
Are u a one man band again?
No sir just not processing orders at this time.
I'm not a screen printer... YET.... Thanks for the tip though!!!
Thanks Man. I worked in a shop in Tempe mostly catching. No one trained with such detail. I want to learn more and work in a T-shirt shop part time, hopefully near the Garfield District.
Hellow..new subscriber here from Philippines...thanks for the tutorial..
Press Reveiw Coming Soon
Are you like super tall?! Or this press wildly tiny. Feels like I’m a Polly pocket lol
Thanks for the share.
Great tip...I don’t see the blue flash from China 🤷🏼♂️ did it finally crap out ?
well I for sure got a new better one, It works ok but it over heats. so it has to sit in the corner and think about what it has done.
The Print Life I was gonna get one ..but not now 👍🏻
In one of your videos you were talking about water based printing and that if a shop does it about 50% of the time a method we can use is to use the same emulsion we would with plastisol ink but after you expose it and wash it out you can apply a hardening agent. The next step is to expose the screen on the exposure unit, then after you wash it out apply Chroma set and leave on for about 3-5 mins. then rise that off, set it dry in the sun or once it is dry expose it again for 30 sec on the exposure unit and that will harden the emulsion enough to use water based inks without purchasing a water base emulsion. This should work fine right? :) Thanks in advance!
From our experiance hardening agents are ok for runs up to 100pcs after that the emulsion starts to get soft.
Best shirt loading video on the net. What platen size are you using in this video?
These are 16x22 I believe
nice moves Bruce Lee
The adhesive spray is what stops my shirt n makes wrinkles...how can i make it smoother? Just spray where im printing?
I love the way how you instruct 😍👏
How you keep ink off your hands though lol do a video on tht
Practice, If you ask me keeping ink off you and everything else is the sign of a good printer. Everything else is bulshit. Good idea for a video. Coming soon.
The Print Life i agree. The shirts wuld be the only problem lol
nice and clean thanks Cam, from India.
Please do a video on how not to get dirty, inked on self and greased on hands while working.
Thanks and respect.
What kind of tape is that that you use on the inside of screens? The white tape. It always comes off super smooth.
That was a nice surprise to see something so much related to printing yet so fresh Man. Thanks for this video.
Dude, finally something that made sense after three years. Thanks
Thanx dawgie 😜🤟💯 helped me out like fow real👊
Hands down the best video I’ve seen yet for loading shirts. Great job Cam.
