Making a Screen for Screen Printing a T-Shirt

Video Transcript

"Hi, this is Mark Kneeskern on behalf of Expert Village and today in this clip, I'm going to show you how to make a screen for screen printing. It's very simple, any hardware store will have the supplies you need to make one of these puppies. Get the wood and screw it together at the corners and go on line and find screen material for screen printing. You can find it probably anywhere, EBay or something like that, and what you do is you stretch it like a canvass. You start by stapling one side in the middle, stretch it, stretch it around and then staple on the other side and then do it correspondingly on these ends and then just continue stapling around as tight as possible. You need to varnish around the edges just overlapping on the screen and that will keep your wood safe and sealed and it will keep your screen attached to the wood. And that's how you make a screen."
