Hey Lee I’m a screen printer in Atlanta and I have regained my motivation to print again since finding your channel. Thanks brother. Keep it going!! 🤙🏽

Thanks for making this video. I ordered one at the end of December and it's supposed to be delivered this week. Now I really can't wait! Good shit bro. 🔥

Hey Lee i'm all the way in the Caribbean from Trinidad. You are definitely an inspiration. I've been doing strictly HTV for some time now and finally getting into Screen Printing. Your videos have been so helpful. Love your channel 🙏🏾

Needing out can be a good thing. Can't wait to see what comes out with the new exposure unit 🤙🏼

Hey bro! I’ve been following you for the last year since you’ve opened you shop. Keep up the great work bro! I love your channel and informative and entertaining it is!

I love how you break everything down. Your video are very helpful for a beginner like myself

Sweet new stuff love it 😍 taking it up another notch 👍😁

love the new content keep being great brother this is awesome still htv one day I will be on your level!!!

Great info as always! Thanks for being the perfectionist you are👍

Them some bright lights!! Hopefully you get everything worked out perfect!!

Awesome videos. You have definitely helped me in my foray into printing.

Looks like you got your workout in 💪 good shit man! I know some people getting prints done. I'm going to tell them about your shop

I appreciate the info and time man!!

I use the same unit at my work. It's super good and i have never had any problems with it... You'll enjoy it! All the best

New stuff is just cool anyway... the smell when you open the box...especially Electrical stuff...it has that certain smell...can't describe it ...it just makes me happy inside 😛 But....far too expensive for me to even consider buying new..or used...I'm making one like Waldo's...1000 watt led light...microwave timer...and some other STUFF 😜 Love the video

I like nerding out on screen printing too... my favorite process is CMYK ✌👌🙌 love screen printing like a printer

Great exposure time guesses, how much snow did you get in Winnipeg, I got about 13” in east Selkirk

I binge watch all your video in one day

You are still our hero!!!

I’m loving your channel

Wow! I’m using a small exposer box from ryonet and I’ve starting to get unfinished cures on the inside of my screens. It’s driving me crazy. Plus my flash times are in the 3 to 4 minutes with this small 2 bulb box. I’m really not ready to make that jump but with my business really taking off, I might need to figure out this new box purchase. Great video!

Haha.....awesome...and Wheelie!! Lol...nice job tho man and omg your quality check!! That’s paying attention to detail! But as everything else on this channel....and happy the experience is paying off...first couple try’s is no easy feet

Kinda enjoy the last 2 minutes of the video and seeing the trials and behind the scenes of things not in the video. Not sure if it makes sense, but it makes it more relatable, because we can all get excited over getting a good shot, or making mistakes like dragging an exposure unit down some stairs.

Did you finally figure out exposure times for each mesh?... What do you recommend for preparing films with Photoshop?...

Thanks for the information.

It took six people to carry my exposure unit down the garden to my shed...its a beast. Single light source.

Hey Lee...I have the older fluorescent one you had...can I ask how often you changed the bulbs..thx

Mr Lee stuAr my LED 100watts upside down 1ft the distance of rhe screen emulsion image what time of the exposure need it. Thnx

Good stuff Lee. Keep in mind that LED isn’t strong enough to fully penetrate emulsions for long waterbased runs either, and that the multiple strips maybe be contributing to the undercutting more than just the film. Fastest emulsion, and thinner EOM may help reduce it! 👍🏼

this should be interesting! EDIT: - built my own LED unit, typical exposure time is 33 seconds. half-tones work out decently on the first try. I also struggle with super thin lines, and I just know it is the limit of what I can do. great video Lee.

are those white mesh screens? i'd suggest trying it with dyed mesh on the same artwork see if it would have a different result. LED tends to travel down the white mesh almost like ffiber optic make those tiny spots impossibel to wash out.

i’m having so much difficulty with finding the right amount of exposure, can someone help!! i’m currently just using a stand a portable light i received with my screen printing kit.

That thing is awesome bro! Btw, I've been thinking about getting into screen printing, your videos are definitely helpful but do you know if there is a screen printing kit that I can buy which I can use in a small home setting? Thanks again brother, readings from Toronto!

Just for fun - try some LED specific formulated emulsions to how they compare to what you are using. I'd love to see how they compare.

Hey Lee, I've been watching and learning from your channel! Definitely gives me the motivation to succeed! On your new LED exposure, can you tell me what tubes are in it? Model or manufacturer of the bulb? I want to convert my dinosaur to LED. Thank you for the informative videos!

Def should do a “behind the print” series

are you still shooting everything with your canon ?

Hi there! Just found your channel and I really enjoy your content! very well done! Im a military veteran and active duty spouse with some past experience in low-tec screen printing, and i have a question for ya - My local military base is having issues with the guy who screen prints the shirts for base personnel and they want to find a new printer soon. What kind of set up would you recommend if I take this on? They need around 250 shirts every week or so. One or two designs on short sleeves, long sleeves, hoodies, crew neck sweaters, and sometimes child sizes. The art work for these are done by military personnel, but will always need some tweaking to make them screen printable. The guy they have now hires a local tattoo artist to "fix" the original art for him. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Lee your Chanel is awesome , I got a question how did your positive films

hey Lee i have a quick question why would my unit not vaccum correctly?

The evil laugh though lmaooooo

Try 15secs to get these hair-like fine lines. Also make emulsion as thin as possible by doing coat-coat-scrape-scrape (I'm using Saati TExTIL PV) . I've built my own 395nm 300-UVLED 8 rows of LED strips, 5cm distance in between, can definitely make hairline details even without vacuum. Also, that much pressure causes jagged details like @10:20, or is it due to the positive you used? Use gentler sprayer, and you'll see the difference. You're inspirational LS38! Hero fosho! Shop is fukin A!!!

Hey Lee, have you dialled in your dryer with a donut probe yet? I recently picked one up and was shocked to see the temp difference between it and the laser gun. Crazy. I made some significant changes. Might make for an interesting episode. Greetings from Newfoundland!

I've tried black light LED and I cannot burn halftones at all . No matter what the time I use I am under and over exposed all at the same time

how much would you sell your old one for

Ryonet's top sales representative

Hello !! Was this upgrade good? What can you tell me about these new Leds? Photopolymer emulsion reveal well? Thanks

You can just convert the old unit to LED and save a TON of money, the conversion is super simple.

What's the link for the exposure unit and where can I buy a good printer?

I had the same unit you did and am to upgrade to the LED as well in a month. I always have that problem of emulsion not washing off the ink side of the screen and leaving that film. Does this LED unit stop that since it burns through all the emulsion? Also, how did you get that excess emulsion/film off when it happened? I'd normally have to re-degrease the screen after drying it to get rid of it. Please let me know, thanks! Congrats on the upgrade BTW.

wow!

Total new person here - what is the little slip of paper? film? that you held up and told us to make sure we were using it? Is this something that works as an exposure gauge?

You should replace your fluorescent bulbs with UV bulbs, and analyze the difference.

Hey! This has very little to do with LED Upgrade, but what size squeegees do you use most often?

Why not use exposure calculator for single screen frame

You’re like the Alton Brown of Screen Printing

dammit! why'd you have to pop out a video with this unit, I had it in my cart for the past week debating whether I should upgrade to it or not. looking like I'm sold at the moment. god my wallets gonna hurt

Shade tree!!

Awesome shit now i want that machine. You can donate your old one to me lol. Good shit like always !

something just popped into mind. you can buy LED lights that go into fluorescent sockets and they look just like the ones in your new cabinet. im wondering how that would work.

What printer do you use for your transparencies

which emulsion should i use with the 50watt uv if im using plastisol ?

What is the most preferred printer to print film positives?

Can I know more about this

Where did u get that screen storage?

hello, what printer do you use to print the positives?

🤘💀🤘

Can I get your old exposure unit

excellent I love your videos more, ordered in your work Someday with Spanish subtitles more Latin followers greetings from Nicaragua

💯💯💯💯💯💯

Save your old exposure unit and use that as a film registration unit instead!

Nice video, but actually it appears all they did was change out the florescent bulbs and install UV LED tube light bulbs. And you don't need any new ballast, you actually have to disconnect any ballast or started to use these builds. The description says: The LED bulbs MUST be directly wired to the 120V AC Power! Please disconnect Ballast (& Starter if there is any) before plugging in the bulb. So, most likely, you could install these new UV LED bulbs in your old exposure uint yourself if you are handy? The vacuum unit and timer would work without modification, see the wiring instructions in the Amazon link. www.amazon.com/Fulight-Blacklight-Tube-Light-Clear/dp/B06XZNVH42

If there's one person I want to see outtakes from it's Lee Stuart. I can't stand those who make fake outtakes, whether on YT or in music

let me get that old one haha

lmfao

I have the Sun in Ghana. Free exposure unit manufactured by God. Didn't pay a single dollar for it.

if only you had a 320 pound angry german customer service guy to help you with lifting stuff ;)

thank Lee for everything! you inspire us: intagram @prophetoutfitters you make screen printing cool!

Mess no

You ain’t even share where you got the unit, but want me to watch YOU rumbling around??? No 👎🏾👎🏾
