hi everyone. so far i love screen printing, but my wallet doesn't.

i rent a building in rural CO. where i am working on getting it to code to open as an underground/d.i.y. music venue. i bought the riley hopkins jr. 4x1 semi-pro kit as a way to not only print my own "shop shirts" but also small runs for bands and artists.

knew nothing of screen printing before 10/23/2017 and still don't.

many questions will be asked, many dollars will be lost. hopefully soon, i can start earning dollars and answering questions.

have the day that you deserve.

When you make that first sale of a shirt or order of shirts that you printed with your own hands, the things that are currently discouraging you will slowly fade away. It is expensive and overwhelming at first, but what worthwhile passion or endeavour isn't?

ya it definitely is encouraging. so far i have printed two designs of my own and sold about 12 of those shirts online and at my shop. i have also taken on my first hoodie order and just routed out a zipper groove in an oversized platen. looking forward to getting into that badboy. thanks for the encouragement!!!

Don't lose hope! I just started my business in October and have been discouraged but I know I need to get more aggressive to get it going. There are always rough spots on a journey but the end is worth it!
