Looking to buy everything all at once (screen printer, dryer, press, etc.). Do you have any recommendations of who offers something like that? Also want something good to where I'm not looking to upgrade in a couple years. Thank you!

Check the left column and you will find PROWORLD.
They have packages to meet every budget.
They seem to have packages to meet every application.
Their customer services appears to be outstanding according to reports here on T-Shirt forum.

Be advised, all of the vendors have packages that tend to not fit in the budget box of many.

Went there but didnt see any screen printing presses included. Sorry, I wanted a combo package with at least a 6 color screen printing press included. Thanks though. Its truly appreciated.

Whether you get all your gear from one place or not, I'm not a fan of packages. They always include stuff that you either don't need or would have preferred a different model. Better to figure out what best meets your needs and budget and buy accordingly.

That said, I like Vastex for presses and flashes (and dryer if I had one). I think exposure units and washout booths and screen drying boxes cost an awful lot for what they are, and prefer to DIY.

GoldUpUSA has good static screens at good prices. Inks, chemicals, emulsion, and all that stuff depends on what you are doing and should not be part of some gawdawful kit package.

Hello forum, I have a similar question as teedizz

I'm new to the field, and wanting to build a start up.
I have no experience in screen printing. I have been researching for quite a while now on which press/package I should go head and invest in.
My budget is fairly small compared to the big shop packages out there.
I have been looking quite hard, and honestly ready to buy
Ryonet's Semi Pro 4/1 Riley Hopkins JR press package.
I've been looking for a package to include the basic necessities to get things started.

My question is.... would this press package be a good starting point to get the hang of things?
Is is worth the price? or can i build my own package with a similar price range?
[Press/Flash/EXUnit/Screens/Ink/Etc...'

Link to package:https://www.screenprinting.com/semi-pro-4-color-screen-printing-kit_2

I have searched around, but I'm currently stuck on this Ryonet package.
If you guys have any recommendation for similar package with quality equipment, can you guys please list them? or send me to the right direction? it will be greatly appreciated.

Exicted to join the journey!

Thank you,

Package or not....you have to have a press, flash dryer, screen, emulsion, ink cleaner, emulsion remover exposure light, ink (and I would recommend plastisol white and black), spray mist adhesive, film and a film printer (like an Epson 1430), squeegee....and of course a few t-shirts.

Just food for thought. One has to accept the complicated study of figuring everything out and just dive in and do it. Of course you have to study hard and you have to figure it out. You can do it!

The list I mentioned is the list I started out with....and I spent about $1500 bucks just getting those basics about eighteen years ago.
