This is so cool, can you make a video engraving a halftone image on the screen? I am a screen printer for 18 years, this will be a game changer. Thank you in advance.

Very nice. I've never flooded first and still get a great print. Also just fyi the magnet for the squeegee is in the front, not the back😊

This video just made me reconsider my business plans. Thank you! I was considering getting into DTF printing, but for limited color designs this may be a much better idea.

Thanks for this. Mad layout in your workbench area, btw.

Can you share any of the screen printing tutorial videos you watched to learn the process? Thank you for the helpful tips & tricks. They helped answer some of the problems we were having with our Xtool Screen Printer.

Huh! This was quite fascinating! Thanks for the great tutorial!

It’s a simple and fun process for sure.

Also are they gonna provide the acreens? In the beggining they were offering the special mix paint blue to reuse them and noe they are not. So they making us buy the screens again and i wonder how much will cost.

I just ordered one of these with a new engraver. I assume the screens are one time use for each design?

have you washed any t-shirts and does the ink stay on after washing

Thanks for a great video. Once you engraved on the screen, can you clean the screen and add a different picture, etc or do you have to buy more screens for different images etc.

There is a process to remove the screen coating, then a new coating can be applied and reused. Screens are about 30-40usd for 4. And depending on the size of images you burn then you can do additional images and tape over the areas that have existing burn images. They also claim about 100 uses of the screen depending on the type of paints used water or oil

Cool concept but the downside is that it takes forever to burn the screen. But xtool never disappoints

Love the channel thanks for all the great info and tips. I am definitely going to be ordering this for my laser. My one question is do you buy more screens from xtool or after market?

Is the screen reusable?

Does this work without the riser base?

How difficult is the screen clean up? Is the screen reusable?

If you use a water-based ink, the screen can simply be rinsed with warm water. The screen is reusable in the sense that you can use it again at a later time to put the same image onto other items but not reusable in the sense that you can laser a different image into it again. Once it's lasered, the emulsion you've removed is permanent.

​@asdragasd can you reapply emulsion to print another different design on it?

What kind of screens are you using?

technically they are a metal screen. with a small enough mesh to hold the emulsion.. but relatively strong enough NOT to burn / melt the metal screen.. im going to try it with my f1 and my laguna co2 machine.

Also living on the Peninsula the “Believe in Ferries” design is very relatable. Unfortunately the belief v reality is a little in conflict right now seeing as we are down to 13 out of 21 boats for our routes 😂⛴️
