Cam, one of your BEST HOW TO VIDEOS to date! So often your videos are fast forward time lapse and you can't really see what the process is, this video shows the PFP process with the smoothing stroke in real time, greatly appreciated. Thanks
I love folgers 1850 coffee. We have a pretty inexpensive Keurig machine. We can get the 1850 in the Keurig cups however I have a reusable one and buy coffee by the bag and do it that way.
Keurig Brewers are expensive initially, but I have found them to be awesome. I picked mine up in a thrift shop for $10 and am super dedicated to it. Pop in a coffee pods, press a button and your coffee brews in about a minute. No more playing with filters and coffee pots. If you have access to a Sam's Club, they sell cases of coffee pods for relatively inexpensive prices. 100 count (100 cups of coffee) for somewhere between $20-30. I buy "mixed" boxes of coffee pods off of Amazon/eBay which are a random gaggle of different flavors. You can get tea pods, cappuccino, hot chocolate in all different flavors. The Keurig has an internal heating coil which keeps water hot at all times. The newest "Vue" Keurig can brew up to 18oz I think. Your vlog is awesome!
Primo Hot and cold bottom up cooler and heater with a built in K-Cup brewer. My favorite is the Hazelnut Cappuccino, though on the road I get French vanilla cappuccino. It;s more like drinking a cup of hot chocolate with a different flavor, but still gives the caffeine kick.
can you make a video on film registration or what do you use to make film always line up at the same spot always. so I won't have issues on press! thanks all the way from Laredo, Tx
Go with BRC coffee. One of the beat tasting out there. Dont over spend for a coffee maker. A shop coffee pot should run about 30 bucks. Love all the videos!!!
On the phones you could do a quick call forward to your cell while gone. Coffee maker in the shop we got a keurig. Easy for a quick cup and we use the breakfast blend. For Good Coffee I prefer the Chemex or a French press. Both of those take longer and you will need a grinder and scale.
Man I am digging it! I did screen printing long ago for a top rated operation and watching your videos brings back some memories and gives me some great laughs remembering being an ink monkey. I'm thinking about throwing a small almost guerilla (as in totally salvage and scavenge materials to diy just to see if its viable) print shack together so your videos are tasty knowledge nuggets of food for thought. Coffee! The machine is almost inconsequential but the bean is non negotiable. Here are my top three that do not dismay. Death Wish coffee company is my top dog and go to java. Whether its the Death Wish robust or less dark Odin force Valhalla blend. Koffee Kult, their slogan, Be one of us. After enjoying their brew, yes I indeed will subscribe to the newsletter. Last but not least Black Rifle Coffee Co. I like the AK blend and I love the homegrown youtube ass commercials. If you allow it I would love to ship some of my top pick to your shop and you see for yourself. I don't work for them but I like to support what i enjoy and spread it all around to all the others enjoyable aspects I find in life. Rock.
Moka stovetop simplest shit. Makes a good strong cup. As for coffee find a local roastery in your area. Go in and start trying the various blends that they have until you find what you like.
What is it that you are doing on the flatten stroke? Are you putting any ink or other material through the screen or is it just pushing down on the emulsion?
Hey print life could I use an old fully tapped up screen as my flatten screen push at 4.33? Or is it best to use a fully emultion coated screen with no stencil on?
Hey Cam, It may have been asked before , but wondering what the sq. footage of the shop is, minus the office and what all do you have there? Just wondering if its just like 1 6/6 manual press etc. just to see what you fit . Thanks
@@keithorlando3306 There are only two layers. The first layer is white. This second "layer" is used just for flattening down the ink and fibers.There's no design burned into the screen; it's just cured emulsion. He uses ink (white in this case) as lubrication so the squeegee doesn't trash the screen. Then he comes back with another hit of white with the same screen from the first layer.
This might be a strange question but what is that base that your press? I just got a bench press and need to find something sturdy and that can level. Love your videos btw
I have everything except the big equipment you use. Do you need all of that machinery or is it there to make it easier? Can I still print without the use of that swivel thing you use? I don’t even own a heat press :/ I don’t have enough space in my house to store any of that
I use a regular Mr. Coffee man. My wife and I got an expensive Keurig/Pot hybrid and it broke in like a month. Mr. Coffee has been going strong for a couple years. As far as coffee I like darker the better. But usually whatever is on sale, usually Columbian or espresso. Sometimes we will splurge and order some specialty kinds (Bones, Black Rifle, etc.)
Right on that is what I went out and bought, so far so good. I tried the Dunkin Donuts brand, it is allot better than the circle k pee pee that I have been getting.
few people will agree, but I prefer Folgers Classic Roast. I use sugar free coffee mate creamer only. that's just me. i am quite sure there is better coffee out there, but since I knock it down with creamer anyway, it doesn't matter to me bro. thanks for another great vid Cam-O!
how do you like that chinese auto flash? did you ever find spare bulbs from it? back in the day i used to be into saltwater fish tanks...and bought china made lights for it...it saved a TON of money, and what i found worked well was swapping chinese bulbs with good brand name bulbs....and that made a huge difference. perhaps you can find some brand name bulbs and put them in the flash when they start burning out.
Sorry if this is a dumb questions, but what is the purpose of having ink on the other screen (to flatten/smooth) if no ink will be going through the mesh? Is this ink reclaimed?
i was thinking of it too why put ink in it? but i realized its hard to use the squeegee if its dry, so the ink is in there just to make the squeegee slide i assume ^^ yeah probably thats the reason ^^
The Print Life Awesome. We are just getting started and we bought a Legend. I know the press doesn't cure all, just felt like easier registration would lessen the intimidation of learning how to screen print. Anyway, appreciate your vlog.
Hey Cam, greetings from India. First, what's that spray at the pallette @ 3:23. What did you use on the second coat @ 4:30, how to expose the screen for that coat. Lastly, pls suggests a curing machine for majorly plain plastisol ink and pigment ink for cheap t-shirt printing. Thanks mate, cheers for the vlog ✌️🤘
So i from what I could tell your flattening screen was just a screen full of emulsion that you used to flatten the image, but it looked like there was a softhand base or something on the screen? I'm new to screen printing and have been killing myself trying to get crispy clean prints and to print white on dark garments without laying down 7+ swipes of ink.
Have you ever considered cold brew? We use an inexpensive brand McCafe and we have a cold brew set up on our counter. The best part is that you won’t burn your mouth with hot coffe.
Cam dude, cop a Bonavita if you want an automatic drip style coffee maker that makes really decent coffee for an affordable price... but if you wanna keep it even cheaper and also still make amazing coffee get a French press... you can get one $20 and just need to heat your water and grind your beans. Both can be done on the cheap. If you can, grind your beans right before you brew... it only takes a minute really but makes a big difference. If you prefer less sediment than a French press produces a simple pour over carafe will hit the spot too, and also still be very affordable. Both French press and pour over will put your average drip coffee to shame imho and are still the cheapest solutions for making a good cup of joe :)
I use coconut oil, honey, and cayenne pepper in my coffee.. sounds strange af but it's really good and healthy for you and you don't need any creamer.. or will work fine with the almond milk too.
I love your vlog...!! At 3:20 you sprayed and scrubbed the print palette, was that thinner taking away some old spray glue or were you reactivating some paint on glue?
Love the vids! My choice of coffee maker is the Cuisinart coffee maker. I love my coffee very hot and this one makes it very hot. I love the taste of any orgasmic peruvian coffee but also love columbian. MOKAS are nice if you're into an espresso type of coffee.
Try Songbird Coffee & Tea House 812 N 3rd St, Phoenix. It looks cool! Just looked them up for you, but don't blame me if they're no good, I'm in Australia. Can't be worse than the shit you were drinking. Love your work by the way!!!
Hey, your videos have been helping me a lot with this. Have actually started this as a hobby. However I am stuck at curing now. I am using plastisol ink, but I can't really get a flash dryer so I just wanted to know if heat gun can help me with the curing?
Gotta get down with "Lavazza" it is a little more expensive but you don't use as much to make it and it's off the chain.! If you just want to go low budget Cafe Bustelo you can never go wrong with either but Lavazza baby..!! Prefetto Espresso Roast (the brown one)
I like the coffee brands: "Seattle's best coffee" "Dunkin Donuts" "Starbucks" You can find those coffee brands at most super markets. I usually buy dark roast or Hazel nut.
I know this video was make long time ago but decided to comment anyway about COFFEE. Coffee smells way better than it tastes. That's a fact everyone silently knows. If you have some iffy coffee or just want a different taste try "Hazelnut Coffee Creamer" added to your finished coffee, not instead of milk. We have it in our supermarkets (grocery stores) here in Australia, but have included an Amazon link. I keep mine in the freezer so it never goes out of date. Try plain 'instant' coffee without sugar and lots of milk, say 3 parts water 2 parts milk, and cold, made with cooled boiled water. I find even the most expensive brand tastes like crap sometimes. Make sure you drink plenty of water as coffee naturally dehydrates you. Thanks for screen printing tips. www.amazon.com/slp/hazelnut-coffee-creamer/7ngm3jjozuyc9e9
First of all thankyou for not using fowl language when you burnt your tongue, Folgers Mountain Grown and thru a Counter top Coffee Maker, and I use French Vanilla Creamer and it makes bad coffee Wonderful. And compliments on your hard work.
I gotta start watching the final edit, I noticed the first time card is wrong so I checked the rest they are all the same. OOOPS!
The Print Life
Can you live well grabbing silk screen?
The Print Life hi
How do you line up the second passes so well? Is this just skill, or am I missing something?

Good to know I will try to mix it up showing prints more often.

Jura coffee machine (little pricer, but worth it) and Lavazza coffee. So good! The vlog is amazing, thanks so much Cam!
Keep up the grind my brotha wish you nothing but the best. Learned a lot from watching your channel.
When you do the flattening stroke, do you just have the white ink on that blank screen for lubrication?
exactly or black ink, Black ink is slicker
can you make a video on film registration or what do you use to make film always line up at the same spot always. so I won't have issues on press! thanks all the way from Laredo, Tx
I've been watching tonnes of videos for the last couple of months. But yours are the shiz bro!!
Go with BRC coffee. One of the beat tasting out there. Dont over spend for a coffee maker. A shop coffee pot should run about 30 bucks. Love all the videos!!!
Sorry what do you use on the screen when you flatten it with the squeegee?
what is the flattening stroke screen, it doesn't look like there is an image burned on to it but there is ink on the screen?
Where do you get one of those Squeegee sharpeners that you used in the video?
One of my favorite channel
Here from Philippines.. keep it up dude
Great success always uncle. Very inspired. HEALTHY greetings.
love this video!!! what is the mesh count on this screen?
What mesh counts are you using to get the edges that clean?

I can hardly see the number

What flash are you using? Do you have any complaints? Thank You!
Pick up a kurig ( or something like that) and donut shop is one of my favorites
what exactly is on the 2nd screen? is it just a blank burned screen?
Go see Rob over at Impact Printing on 7th Ave. next time you need some business cards. He's local and fair priced.
What is it that you are doing on the flatten stroke? Are you putting any ink or other material through the screen or is it just pushing down on the emulsion?
I’m just wondering what the point of the ink on the push stroke is? Does it pass through the screen a little because it’s not cured or something?
Where is the best place to get the film
Why gets discarded plastisol high thickness please answer me sir
What is that thing you put the squeegee in?
Hey print life could I use an old fully tapped up screen as my flatten screen push at 4.33? Or is it best to use a fully emultion coated screen with no stencil on?
Hey Cam, It may have been asked before , but wondering what the sq. footage of the shop is, minus the office and what all do you have there? Just wondering if its just like 1 6/6 manual press etc. just to see what you fit . Thanks
Willy Bwaman!!!!! wow what a movie that was. Greay video bro.
WAS THIS DONE WITH A160 MESH?
What do you have on the screen for the flatten stroke? Is it an ink or a grease or lubricant of some kind?
yea it's just flow base. Black ink works best.
The Print Life So the first layer is white, 2nd black and 3rd white?
@@keithorlando3306 There are only two layers. The first layer is white.

Hey Cam, thanks for the awesome tutorials. Saw you using two screens the first has a burnt and what is the other for? Is it just to flatten the ink?
Keurig with the cups that you put your own coffee grounds in. And Folgers French Vanilla flavored coffee grounds is the best!
Carpe Diem Coffee from Maine!! You have to order it online, but its definitely the jam!!!
im on it.

Whats the flattening stroke for?
To flatten
Cam, what shirts did you use to print that white plastisol on?
i loved it! i will share this video to my friends... thank you!
Lots of the same questions here. Explain the flattening screen. Is it really necessary?
Hi, what mesh size you are using in this tutorial.. Actually i am not getting good quality results by using plastisol inks with T77 mesh size...Thanks
As a fan from Canada...Tim Hortons coffee is Canada! Great vlogs man!
Thanks Ryan.
How did you set up the screen for the flat and stroke?
just spray a little silicone on the bottom. and throw some ink in there, ya good to go after that.
Where can I get most of these equipments to start? Or even cheaper versions of them👀
Cam so the best mesh for white would be 120 right? Keep doing what your doing print fam
Thaks EVA, or whatever your name is.... i will just call you another Happy customer. 👍💯 WORD! That's so Dope, B. Welcome to P.life. Where we print $.
Hi, love your videos
After the ink is dried and comes out of the dryer do you heatpress it? Thanks
Cam, looks like you are printing with an Antec Legend. Is that right? If so, why do you like it over other manual presses?
I bought it used years ago, But it is a great press because of the super light throw weight and the micros are pretty dang good.
The Print Life Awesome. We are just getting started and we bought a Legend. I know the press doesn't cure all, just felt like easier registration would lessen the intimidation of learning how to screen print. Anyway, appreciate your vlog.
Newbie here. What were you using that I saw on the screen for the flattened stroke?
Just white ink.
How do you create your images digitally
i have a question what is the second pass for? i did not see any images on the screen? great videos.
That no ink, blank screen stroke pass is to flatten down and soften the plastisol ink. very soft, buttery feel to the ink.
Thank you.
You should watch his video about preventing Fibrillation, that's why he's doing it :)
Jay Paulino which video? Thanks
Hey Cam, greetings from India. First, what's that spray at the pallette @ 3:23.
What did you use on the second coat @ 4:30, how to expose the screen for that coat.
Lastly, pls suggests a curing machine for majorly plain plastisol ink and pigment ink for cheap t-shirt printing.
Thanks mate, cheers for the vlog ✌️🤘
Have you ever tried the action engineering manual roller?
No but in my opinion I don't think it would provide the downward force necessary to really push the fibers down. just stick with a squeegee.
I have one that I'm on the fence about. Shoot me an email at willcottprinting@gmail.com if you have any interest in testing it out for a bit.
So i from what I could tell your flattening screen was just a screen full of emulsion that you used to flatten the image, but it looked like there was a softhand base or something on the screen?

Have you got a paid course?
Killer bro, cool of you to spotlight clients.
Folgers Dark or Silk is like espesso and put that in the blender with half and half, Ice and whip topped with more honey and Bam.

I use coconut oil, honey, and cayenne pepper in my coffee.. sounds strange af but it's really good and healthy for you and you don't need any creamer.. or will work fine with the almond milk too.
Hey Cam! As far as coffee goes, any brand for me is good but the creamer is what makes it tolerable. Lol!
True the cream is good but I have cut most dairy, so Im using almond milk
The Print Life ah! Add a little sweetness along with almond milk. Good stuff!
Nice job!!
I love your vlog...!! At 3:20 you sprayed and scrubbed the print palette, was that thinner taking away some old spray glue or were you reactivating some paint on glue?
I'd like to know as well :D
Is that ink that you’re flattening with
Hey.. what type of ink have you used while printing this t-shirt... Thanks!!
I cant remember what ink I used,
The Print Life why? Then make a video if u know people ask?
but i have cutter plotter i have printer and heat press
you have a.press station? i building my lineal table to start printing.

So confusing with the second screen it doesn't even look like there's an image burnt into it but I don't understand why you're pulling ink over it
Hello sir want to setup new t shirt business if it's possible than plzz sent me the details software and printer name and ink cartridges thanku
How's that flash working out for you?
So far it's really good.
Think I'm gonna try one out
Gotta get down with "Lavazza" it is a little more expensive but you don't use as much to make it and it's off the chain.! If you just want to go low budget Cafe Bustelo you can never go wrong with either but Lavazza baby..!! Prefetto Espresso Roast (the brown one)
Sounds good I'm trying Cafe Bustelo first, if it aint good enough for me then on to Lavazza. Thanks for the coffee advice.
I would of liked a closer look at the finished print on the shirts to see the difference to just regular screen printing but I like your vids
Why don't you have the ability to forward calls to your cell?
Funny you say that. I do now, Didn't know I could do that with the VoIP service.
gmail voice is free and u can forward calls that come into ur gmail # to ur cell.also good way to keep cell # private
