Make Your Own Screen Printing Screens EASY
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
You will learn to make screen printing frames from repurposed canvas frames which are easily found at you local thrift stores.
Equipment:
110 mesh from Amazon: amzn.to/38FEZUS
Drawer / Cabinet Liner: amzn.to/34HXkPS
Staple Gun: amzn.to/2KVa6TQ
Staples: amzn.to/3rrE2Ie
Assortment of clamps (you can find at most hardware stores, but I'll post a couple examples here): amzn.to/2M7e7Fz or amzn.to/3hkSrRY
Scrap wood: If you don't have scrap wood around, find a wood pallet to tear apart.
Canvas Frames: Find these at your local flea market or thrift store. I find that the glued variety work better than the stapled variety.

Absolutely. Just straight 2 the point
I thought I was the only who used picture frames like these haha, I live in Barcelona and people here just toss them outside trash containers so they’re literally free for me
Wow!! You blew my mind by using old frames from Goodwill! So much easier than buying the wood and building the frame from scratch. Thank you!!
thank you for making an actual diy tutorial. I have come across so many “diy” videos where you need some niche expensive equipment according to them. Thanks for being so accessible and helpful!
I just made three screens. Thanks for the info! Saved me hella money.
This was great. It looks so straight forward and easy to do at home. Thank you. I am adding this to my Screen Printing Playlist.
this is great - thx I'm a musician ans starting to make my own merch and need to save $ on materials. Great work
This is awesome!! Thanks for sharing and giving a lot of detail !
Stumbled across this video and this is just genius! Even for painters stretching canvas, the grippy mat wrapped around wood trick is super helpful. Traditionally painters would use canvas pliers which only tension one spot at a time, it can be so frustrating trying to get the whole canvas smooth and tight.

:) I still check my comments. Thanks for the kind words.
I love videos like this. Thanks for the tip. I’m just getting started and this will help me a lot getting going because I have such little capital to begin with
Thank you so so much I've been searching for instructions how to make put my kids in class school projects expressing themselves on fabric thank you thank you thank you I am not an art teacher I'm a history teacher and this is useful thank you
Fantastic! I have a work bench with a clamp, but I also have a bunch of kids-- maybe one of them can hold the unstapled end taught for me instead of using the wood planks
I've been cutting 1x2's but have also thought about picture frames as well, but the big deal I got from your video was how you tensioned the screen with the blocks of wood wrapped in No Slip and clamped together. I've been hand tensioning to okay results, had been thinking of hanging a weight with it clamped to the excess screen but your way seem more likely. Thx.
Great ideas. THANK YOU!
OMG!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!! I have tons of old canvas I painted earlier in life and don't want. Glad I kept them all these years!!!! I'm into t- shirt vinyl and am wanting to learn how to screen print....so glad I found you!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW...you made this look so easy for me. I'm heading out to the shop, right now, and giving this a go!
Super vid, straight and clear info and to the point. Memesy, many thANks !!!
Thank you!!! This is the best tutorial I've found
You made my life easier. thank u for sharing.
Thank you! You have the easiest way to make it
Thank you. I needed this. To the point and no fancy tools. I appreciate you making this video. It’s how I’m going to do mine. Do you add tape over the staples before using it?
I am new to this. So I appreciate this very much. Thank you
Nice!! Gunna have to give this a go
Your video was a huge help. Thank you
Genius!! Thank you so much for sharing.
These ideas are great. Thank you very much super helpful. 💪🏻🖨
Clear and to the point!
badass thank you for showing me! simple and effective.
Simple easy way to make your own screens. Thank you I like the sandwich technique. Going to try it❤😂
Thanks for this info easy to understand
Thank you sm big dog! Keep being a king
Glad I found this video! Used a similar method-rolled the excess screen in a 1x2 to use as a tensioner. I have some SLIGHT waves in my mesh, but not major. Will that be ok when it comes to the emulsion?
Thanks for the tip!
Thanks amazing going to try this
Thank you for making this video.
Thank you sir, worked great :)
Nice idea!
I'm a former screen printer & I gotta say ..... NICE !!! I'm going to star up printing at home for my own purposes (not as a money maker).
Omgoodness thank you
Great video!!
7:42 That bounce is perfect lol.
Thank you man thank you
Great Video thank you
This process and idea will make me a millionaire
Thanks
Thank you!
Any tips on helping the screen not rip with the staples? Got the screen all put together and with a little pressure it starts to rip at the staple site and loosens the screen. Went ahead and coated it with emulsion Anyway. I’m gonna do a test print to see how it works.
Hello i just have a question ,what type of material is the screen sheet that to you attach to the wood made of ?.
Genius!

A W E S O M E .. thank you for being so comprhensive!

What is the name of the white cloth? And where will I get it?
Hi what kind of clothes you use?
How is the longevity on these? Do they last for multiple prints? Multiple reuses?
I wonder if a good substitute for that anti-slipping material would be SANDING PAPER?
what mesh did you use?
Awesome, Thank You Sir.
sweet...

Can I use old canvas frames that have horizontal cross bars?

I've seen them used once before. It all depends on the size of the frame and what size your print is. The instance that I saw, the user treated each half of the frame as two separate one color screens. Personally I wouldn't recommended it unless your print is small (for instance you're printing on baby t-shirts or bibs).
Good idea. But I don't have all those tools It will cost more to get those tools and time to make
Great video - but that denim jean poster at goodwill in the photo!! hot

Hi Dina, the link to the exact mesh that I used is in the more info section, but any 110 mesh will work well.
how do you keep the mesh tight enough so you don’t get any ripples? or can you explain a way to prevent ripples?

There is a method that I use for stretching canvas on frames that works very well! You start in the middle of the frame by stapling one side and then directly across from it pull the canvas and staple. At this point ONLY staple 2 staples 1 inch apart. Go to the opposite and stretch and then staple 2 staples one inch apart. Then do the same procedure with the other sides of the square, again only stapling 2 staples 1 inch apart. You should now have 2 staples on each middle of the square. And it should be stretched tight in the 4 directions. Then going clockwise around the perimeter stretch and staple 2 staples on side A then 2 staples on side B then 2 staples on side C and then 2 staples on side D. Just continue doing this in a clockwise manner stretching as you go and stapling. When you get to the end of the sides the canvas should be wrinkle free and taut. Hard to explain but once you do one you will see it is easy and very effective. Just try to have uniform stretching as you proceed around the sides. When you have reached the end going clockwise then do the same sequence but going counter clockwise. Hope this is not too confusing and helps!

I'm using just about the cheapest staple gun you can find. You can get one for $10 - $12 at most stores (Walmart, Home Depot, Lowes, etc.).
