Default First attempt at everything (Newbie)

hey just wanted to post, got my screen printing equipment the other day, and after watching hours of instructional DVD's, figured I'd put myself to the test.

I can't believe how excited I was when my first 2 screens turned out pretty good.

After I exposed the screens, and started washing them out, I got a little worried because it was cleaning out, but I was just too impatient, I was shocked at how crisp and clean the Algerian text came out.

Anyhow I was excited and figured I'd share my good news.

I'm not going to lie, I was a nervous wreck, doing everything.
I watched the emulsion application 3 times before I actually done it.

Good luck to ya.
