Hi! We are new to screen printing and looking to buy our equipment to finally start! We need help in choosing the best kit...Our budget is approx. 2000$ since we're not planning on making big production for now, we will invest later if we see we need to, so we're hesitating between buying a kit that includes 1 station 4 color Riley Hopkins press Riley Hopkins Econo Series 4 Color 1 Station Table Top Press and a 2 station 4 color table top press SPHO Screen Printing Package w/ 4 Color 2 Station Press . Is it worth sacrificing quality to have 2 stations or should we opt for better quality 1 station even if it means having to reinvest sooner or later? Thanks for your help! We can't wait to start!!!
Have you shopped for used equipment? You really need both multiple stations and reliable quality. Shops outgrow what they're using and you might be able to stay in your budget and find something that will work well for you.
If you're going to be doing mostly one color jobs to start, go with the quality and farm out the rest until you have enough money to upgrade.
We look for some used equipment but we did'nt find anything interesting for our need or our budget right now and what we like about those kits it's it come with everything we need to start.
Did you know some web site who sell used equipment?
