TBT – More Andy Anderson, Process Master

Another throwback Thursday and a couple more pieces by Andy Anderson from Nashville, TN. The dude can print some serious process prints, traditional process being his way usually.  I asked him about these two prints, Andy:  “The only thing I can remember is the Kenny job was done in 1983— it was our first entry…

Web Wednesday – Bill Mooney, Redd Kross, Dirty Laundry and Kung Fu

We featured Bill Mooney’s websites two weeks ago. Here are a few good photos from him and some good history in his own words. I started screenprinting with a Speedball kit as well, so this story is dear to me. Bill in is own words: “Yes, Tannis Root is our tour merchandising and screenprinting company…

Misprint Monday – 15K Missing T’s

Tulowitzki not Tulowizki. I feel for the artist, printer, loader, unloader, folder, boxer… and especially the owner of the shop that printed 15,000 shirts incorrectly for the Colorado Rockies jersey giveaway. The baseball team isn’t doing well, and the promotion didn’t do well either. I do not know a printer that has not printed some…

Domingo Gigante – Evite Reglas!

Torcido un diseño, fuera del centro, demasiado bajo correcto, demasiado alto o rotada o izquierda? Si usted está preguntando por ella, probablemente se trata de un rechazo.

We originally did that because we found it so difficult to do traditional CMYK printing. Andy does it the old…

Web Wednesday – Crookedbrook.com

In my travels on the web, I ran into crookedbrook.com  I love the work that they do and I absolutely flipped for this great line on their site: “If your only concern is “how much per thousand stitches?” let’s not waste each others time. Search engine results pages are full of companies that offer “Discount Custom…

Garret Kaule – Enthusiastic Screenprinter

Garrett Kaule is one energetic dude. He prints and prints and when he isn’t printing he is communicating. He has a lot to say to his customers in the Pittsburgh area, and he communicates like crazy with his screenprinting brothers and sisters. He’s the straw that stirs the drink.  We love his enthusiasm. We asked…

Misprint Monday – Avoid Rulers!

Is a design crooked, off center, too low, too high or rotated right or left? If you are asking about it, probably it is a reject. If you let something go through and the customer gets a ruler out, you are done for. Shirts are made by real live humans and printing (and loading) is…

No tires esa tinta de descarga

Dos trucos que ayudan con esto: 1. Puedes mezclar todas las tintas de colores que necesitas pero espera hasta el último minuto para añadir la tinta de descarga. Si tienes un proyecto largo añade el agente sólo a la cantidad de tinta que vas a usar el primer día. 2. Esa tinta de descarga funciona…
