I've been noticing more and more damaged shirts coming from my suppliers recently too... Nothing like loading a shirt on the press and finding a hole...
For sure. Been an ongoing shit show. No one can keep up with demand and retain quality...training new personnel daily is the problem many of these huge companies have been facing.
I love seeing you revisit this design. Before you added the pink overlay design, the blue still catches my eye. Even as a one-color print, it's still dope!
I’m not a screen printer or anything close to one. But I’ve been watching your videos for a while and always love the energy u put in! Glad to see everything coming together in the new space and I look forward to many more vids!
Awesome to see you back doing what you love man. Can tell the energy just from one video how pumped you are to get back at it and create both product and videos in the new space.
@@leestuart38 It's about fucking time. I've printed more shirts on a 32 year old manual in the last two weeks than you have in your life. Some of us (most) walk the walk. We don't TH-cam the talk. Check that cholesterol pal. Unless you have Halloween makeup on. You have issues. I wish you no ill will. But meth and screen printing don't work well together. Ya got a great staff going on there for so much free equipment. Rock on killer.
Hey Lee, I’ve been following your channel from the beginning and still look forward to seeing new videos…Glad the new shop is coming together for you. I know you put a lot of time and work into it. Wishing you continued blessings!!!
Dude! The last time you did this shirt I was so pissed that I was broke and was only able to pick up the sticker kit. 2 years later and I finally copped me one of these. Cannot wait to get it and see more coming from the shop. BTW this would look killer on a black long sleeve! Keep up the awesome work my man.
Amazing shop You have good content. I was inspired By you though I can't afford what you have I decided to take my shop out of the basement and create a workshop 12 by 10 backyard to fit I'm machines and it give me room to move around for an office appreciate you.👍🏿👊🏿
Had to pause at around 9 mins on this video, being that my first time ever silkscreening was on a auto roq I’m glad to see you have the same exact set up as me. And the reason why I stopped the vid to comment was to mention I also share your frustration with the company Bella&canvas. Their inventory tends to have holes and bug shit. And I’m in Los Angeles.
First of all how are you feeling now? Also after seeing the automatic press back on business it feels good as *** over all i simply love your work shop. About the camera thingy... why don't you just put some GoPro camera around the corner of the work shop?🤔 I think it would give you some great shots and it would record lots of footage 🤔 Any way i would be happy to see your videos day after day. You can even categories it as "non edited" who knows it would blow up🤯😉 Please post everything every time 🙏🙏🙏
Great video, Lee. I know if must feel good to have your shop up and running finally and getting some shots made of the equipment running. Shirts came out looking great. Can't wait to see more soon enough. Keep up the awesome work.
Oh boy.. our shop has been having INSANE amounts of those same issues with Bella 3001 whites. Sometimes an entire dozen stack is dirty/damaged. Ridiculous. Happy to see that auto finally in action though.
'Now, I can mess up a hundred shirts at a time!' LMAO! Hey, man. Even if I don't watch, I let your videos run in the background. Happy to support. Keep up the good work!
Having my own screen printing business I started a year ago, I love watching your videos! its like me owning a honda civic watching a dude show off his lambo hahaha
Thanks man. I'll tell you one thing about the business, you never stop feeling like the one with the civic lol. I look at other shops killing it like I haven't even made a scratch yet. But that's the thing that keeps the drive going!
Fucking love the design bro🤘I had to close down my little shop recently due to family matters but I wanted to say thank you for helping me every step of the way. Without your content I would have been lost in the process. I managed to build a decent size operation with just myself in the home office. You have been such an inspiration and badass with all your techniques and skills and I can't thank you enough. Of course I'm going to keep up and support you anyway I can. I would love a new tee, perfect timing. Once this next paycheck hits I'll be hitting up the shop for you to send a few things to WA state. Keep it up bro and put in that fucking work🤙
OMG I used to work ina shop with a auto press and yeah the shirt batches would always have either holes or some kind of oil like stains on them. Seems unavoidable with giant mass production.
Actually he was the sole owner back when I made that video. I took ownership of it this year so we can push it further with my shop and skill set, other Lee is still a partner though 👍🏻
Thanks man. It's going to take some time to build that one up because I'm doing it on a tiny budget, but in the next few months it's going to be pretty rad
Cool vid again, been home for a month now, after my vacation in the states, still haven’t done the shirts i wanted to make, been busy or distracted with other things. Been talking to a buddy of mine to buy some stuff like 3d printer en heatpress, plus en vinylcutter for small batches of stickers and other vinyl things for him. Been loving the shirt i ordered (your purple chrome logo) good fabric feels nice. Would love to have a shirt but then with the big logo on the front so you can see it on a live stream on twitch.
Looking good! First auto coming soon for us. I think you said in a past video what lights you had in the shop that were ok for your non exposed screens but could you tell us again and where you got them 😉
New to the sublimation world and your videos have been very insightful. Hope to one day get to this level of ability and competence with my machinery. Currently using and Epson f170 for printing designs and a 8 in 1 heat press that I got off Amazon.. any tips for going from "hobbiest" to "full time"?
The best tip I can give is work your ass off. Eat, sleep and breathe this thing every day to make it into something. I started with nothing but a hat heat press 5 years ago
usual dope on a rope! Sweet! I would love to trade settings on your Epson film pos printer. We have a few issues with ours - getting those dark blacks right! If you are up for a screen shot exchange on the settings let me know and I can swapout on email or similar.
Are you gonna make a video update on why your Ryonet custom press wouldn't register multi color jobs? You kinda left us hanging. Why does your new manual press register but your fancy custom press did not register?
I will come to America in a few months. I have been dealing with this business for 15 years, is it possible for me to find a screen printing job there?
@@leestuart38 is it because all the separate colours never overlap, therefore if the screen gets some paint on it from a different colour print it won’t ever cause random marks?
Hay Lee, you really need to be giving us the full story about the Summa before any feel good Videos, you raved about it then nothing? I bought one with influence from you.
@@leestuart38 we switched to them a couple years ago to replace Gildan, and are happy with the decision so far. Your stampinator should lay down all the fibres, fibrillation is the only issue we have with them, and once you can get past that hurdle, they’re pretty nice to deal with.
I believe you referring to Supima which is claimed to be a step ontop of Egyptian cotton, which is also grown in USA. All in all processing and not just growing also plays play a big role in the end product that's why most premium t-shirts come from European n western nations (Supima cotton tees usually extremely expensive). Considering the volumes when it comes to importation, you can easily see why that's not always an option for majority in the clothing industry especially tshirts(specifically screen printers).
Feels like the Gildan and Bella Canvas warehouses are infested with rats with the amount of shirts we get that have holes in them. We had a batch of light blue shirts with pizza sauce on them.
@@crumptees when was this acquisition? Heard of Alstyle buyout by Gildan but never Bella Canvas. All in all anything Gildan touches turns to crap already heard complains from Alstyle users and we all know how they completely killed off American Apparel after it's acquisition of which they were only interested with the brand-name. Something tells me they make a kill out of regular tees hence why they seem to buyout most premium t-shirt makers.
bro are you hiring? lol mentor me plx Please make a video of you trying to print an all over print tee with oversized screens that would be so sick but alot of work

Can't stop watching Amazing T-shirt
I've been noticing more and more damaged shirts coming from my suppliers recently too... Nothing like loading a shirt on the press and finding a hole...
It's been insane, I've noticed it more than anything with Bella canvas. I've since switched to American apparel and haven't had a problem
When it happens to you, it feels like it's only happening to you. Good to know I'm not the only one losing my shit over QC.
Same here.... It's all over the place.
I’ve noticed it with ANY/ALL brands. Total crap. Comes packaged like shit too and costs 2X as much as it used to.
For sure. Been an ongoing shit show. No one can keep up with demand and retain quality...training new personnel daily is the problem many of these huge companies have been facing.
I love seeing you revisit this design. Before you added the pink overlay design, the blue still catches my eye. Even as a one-color print, it's still dope!
Thanks! This design is so much fun
Super stoked that your filming again! I look forward to all your new videos. You rock brother!
Great to be back. Thanks man
Feels good to see the Bushido in a video again. Can't wait to see all the new shooting angles on the new shop while working on that auto 🤙🏼
I’m not a screen printer or anything close to one. But I’ve been watching your videos for a while and always love the energy u put in! Glad to see everything coming together in the new space and I look forward to many more vids!
The best compliment I can get is these videos appealing to people outside of the industry. Thanks!
Awesome to see you back doing what you love man. Can tell the energy just from one video how pumped you are to get back at it and create both product and videos in the new space.

Happy to hear that. Thanks!
My dream is to do screen printed apparel, seeing this awesome machine just makes me want to peruse it so much more!
Glad to see you back and with a awesome shop. Can’t wait to see what’s coming up next!
Thanks!
I thought the video was very cool. Watching the auto squeegee was so satisfying. Glad to see your on your way back to the videos. Can't wait for more.
Thanks man, feels good to be back filming some screen printing

Glad to see you back in action.
👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻
Lets goooo! So stoked that the new shop is operational! Only up from here, Lee!
Thanks!
This machine is GOALS. Sweet video! Definitely subscribing
Great video Lee. I can imagine that recording on an automatic press must be a whole new thing 😳. Glad you back my brother.
Man it's a whole different ball game! I can already foresee the mistakes that will happen 😂, but it makes good footage. Thanks man 👊🏻

It was non stop all night 😂

Thanks man 🤘🏻
Congrats on the new shop glad to see new videos Lee
Thanks a lot 👊🏻
Glad to see another vid! Hope the stress isn’t getting to you too bad.
Feeling good!
Bro. Love the video. My Roq is coming in in January and that is a new Journey to us.
Still a new one to me too. It's a lot different than manual printing that's for sure
damn man I've been missing this level of production quality. glad you're back at it.
Good to be back 🤘🏻
Glad your back. Keeps me motivated
Hell yes 👊🏻👊🏻
Gildan soft style CVC are the same basically for cheaper they are really nice!
Gildan soft style isn't even close to something like B&C, Next level or American apparel. It's a good cheap alternative for lower budgets though
Great video, Lee. I know if must feel good to have your shop up and running finally and getting some shots made of the equipment running. Shirts came out looking great. Can't wait to see more soon enough. Keep up the awesome work.
Feels great to be back printing again. Thanks dude
Oh boy.. our shop has been having INSANE amounts of those same issues with Bella 3001 whites. Sometimes an entire dozen stack is dirty/damaged. Ridiculous. Happy to see that auto finally in action though.
It's crazy how bad these were. I have 200 more white long sleeves for another project that I wanted to do that I'm now scared to look at haha
Another Killer Video! Loved the BTS at the end 🤣
'Now, I can mess up a hundred shirts at a time!' LMAO! Hey, man. Even if I don't watch, I let your videos run in the background. Happy to support. Keep up the good work!

id put down tape on the floor to give you visual queues where its safe to stand near the auto. Could help you some until you get the hang of it.
That's not a bad idea
happy your back you congrats
Seeing this notification pop up was amazing! Missed your vids!
i had same issues with BELLAS, specially black 3001. Switch to Cotton Heritage, NextLevel
I've been using American apparel successfully for a while now

OMG I used to work ina shop with a auto press and yeah the shirt batches would always have either holes or some kind of oil like stains on them. Seems unavoidable with giant mass production.
It's pretty normal to get a few of them during a big run, but 10 out of 60 is so bad. I checked another box and it was even worse
That is some crispy clean print!
I'm still watching that N9rth video of yours. Weren't you and the other Lee co-owners of that brand?
Actually he was the sole owner back when I made that video. I took ownership of it this year so we can push it further with my shop and skill set, other Lee is still a partner though 👍🏻
True bella canvas has been terrible since few months, we had so many bad t-shirts so we finally changed the brand and it works well so far!
I've switched too. Done with them for a while
Your new brand is Dope .Keep up the good work
Thanks man. It's going to take some time to build that one up because I'm doing it on a tiny budget, but in the next few months it's going to be pretty rad
That auto is bad ass. Gonna have to mount a high camera just to work and see it. Keep it up!!
Really want a 360 cam to stick on top of it
@@leestuart38 that would be sick. I was also thinking one mounted high looking down.
Sick video bro. Love the new shop bro. Let me know when you are hiring. I'll have to get a passport but man l would love to work on that press lol
I haven't had issues with my B&C but my runs are really small....where are you getting the shirts from?
7 seconds for exposing feels like a dream - I'm sitting at 20 minutes on my home rig! 😂
If you are using fluorescent tubes, get black light tubes instead, cuts time down to half .
Gotta start somewhere!
@@leestuart38 but a little help never hurt anyone.

I'll be restocking the other long sleeve version of this shirt soon, it has the big back print on the front
@@leestuart38 awesome i’ll keep an close eye on that 😉😁
Ok! Never used Bella Canvas but from their marketing which portrays them as some premium brand not expecting such stuff from them.
They used to be exactly that, but it's gone downhill while the prices went up from what I've noticed
Is that pink a custom mix or something of the shelf ? Really love that color.
Off the shelf wilflex with some additives mixed in
Videos are always inspirational 🔥🔥🔥
Nice Job Bro!!!! Shirt and video looks great!
Thanks dude 👊🏻
Looking good! First auto coming soon for us.
I think you said in a past video what lights you had in the shop that were ok for your non exposed screens but could you tell us again and where you got them 😉
They're just white led's. As long as you have all white led and no windows or uv sources you're good to go
How's the Kaeser? Was that it turning on at the end? Do you have the sx5 or sx7.5? Thanks!
@@jvolingavage Loving the kaeser so far. I have the 7.5c Airtower
have you tried M&O Deluxe 3541, I have been using them for the past 2 years, great alternative to BC, super soft and premium quality
Never really been a fan of M&O stuff
Great to see you back at it dude 🙌
Thanks! Stoked to be back
Shirt ordered 🙌
@@MickyDoyle hell ya dude thank you 🙏🏻
What shop lights do you have ?
its hard to get through an order now adays without something having a hole or the sewing messed up or oil on them.
It's becoming nearly impossible now. I've been making a habit of ordering extra every day just for replacements
Make more videos about the machine! Will you buy dtf printer?

Possibly

Same direction. It can only go one way
