my new shit

[Andrew Bohan]

so yeah, as mentioned in the latest purchase thread, here's my silk screen press that came yesterday

http://www.laboratory17.com/press.jpg

i'd never used one before, so i today i had to go through all the steps of making a design on a transparency, then exposing a screen, and then actually printing the shirt.

i had to think of something stupid and funny for my first shirt, since it probably wouldn't turn out very well anyway.



well, here's what i chose:

You gonna do blue premie name shirts?

Can you do shirts off of a jpeg?

[stiizy]

Make me a Shirt !!!!!!

[Fries]

So much fun. I want to have one, never have to buy teeshirts again. Draw up a vector real quick, print on a transparency throw down some paint. Baller status tee.

From what I remember, you can't.

Has to be a vectorgraph(iirc).

Process also takes a couple hours to transfer the image onto the screen, then expose it, etc.

So, to make just one shirt wouldn't really be worth it.

[Andrew Bohan]

you can use raster (jpg/bmp)

no problem, as long as it's big enough




but yea, it's a couple hours just to prep the screen, however, i could fit a lot of small names on one screen

Wasn't really thinking of one shirt.

Another person I know told me he could do one from a jpeg. That's why I asked.

[ClutchKickThatBitch]

Well, just saying from what I remembered back in class about 3 years ago.

Haha.

Anywho, it would be pretty cool to have a certain design on the shirt with our premie names on them.

[ClutchKickThatBitch]

3 YEARS AGO DAMN lol I'm sure technology has upgraded by now and now you can use whatever pic format

[azndoc]

Hahahaah

I love it.

Drew your the shit.

That's awesome.

Fuck the haters.

Jack will live on.

[Flicktitty]

thats sweet!

[Antihero983]

The magnitude of awesome involved here is off the fucking scale.

it'd be funny to put someone's face on a t-shirt, and then bang their mom whilst wearing the shit.

[ConePirate]

Hahahaah

I love it.

Drew your the shit.

That's awesome.

Fuck the haters.

Jack will live on.

Fuck you Jack! hahaha.

hey so... I'm coming down for the Long Beach drift next weekend. You gonna take me out and show me a good time for the long ass drive Mando and I did to come get that wing? :) I'll be down friday night late.

[azndoc]

I will probably be in town.

We'll get some people together and make some kind of party out of it.

PM me your number.

[fliprayzin240sx]

What's sad is that 90% of zilvia don't get the joke behind this...hell, most of them probably dont even know who the fuck that is until Jack posted up.

[DUFFM4N]

Shit.

Do that print again on a size XS shirt for an adult, and I'm sure some emo kid will pick that shit up and rock it no problem.

[DUFFM4N]

needs more cowbell

[moneybags]

how much did that cost?

[Andrew Bohan]

more than you can afford, pal


FERRARI

[moneybags]

when you're doing multiple runs, do you have any problems with the paint drying on the screen?

[SexPanda]

needs more cowbell

:werd:
I cant wait til someone puts me on a t-shirt.

Hopefully something festive.... With lots of bright colors, and it can't have any fire retardant properties... It actually needs to burst into flames when static electricity is present.

[GSXRJJordan]

Hahahahahahaha!!!

Shit is AWESOME. Lol. Knowing Drew, I was literally expecting a picture of his feces :Ownedd:
