Screenprinting My Own Skateboard Decks, Again!

A new batch of decks is now available in my online shop worldpeaceindustries.storenvy...
This video is a follow up to my 2021 video where I screenprinted a run of blank skateboard decks that I got from BBS/Generator. The process is much the same but I think I have improved a bit.
One new thing I did with this batch of boards is I experimented with less screen tension, and also made a custom curved squeegee. I hope the tips and tricks I have learned help someone out!

so happy to see you screen printing boards again, love the curved squeegee you made I had luck in the past drilling a hole down the handle and cutting it evers few inches and held it together with some rope. then you just put the blade back in.

Oh that sounds like a coo solution for curving the squeegee! Thanks for your comment, appreciate you watching!

What do you do for a living? Based on that empty fridge (and access to tools) it looks like you're a teacher.

easy tip for making a perfect squeegee is to just cut some mid sections out of a deck and clamp the blade between them

also blowout occurs when there is a gap between the screen and the deck so pressing hard with the right squeegee will help

Yes good tip, I have seen people do that and considered the same, but I did not have any old decks that would have been wide enough for my squeegee blade (10"), so that's why I ended up making it from the thin plywood I had :)

The last squeegee I made out of a skateboard deck was an11" wide squeegee from a 9" deck. Cut 2 strips width wise of the board then trim off the excess to get the right length. Do that twice. Then piece it all together like the last squeegee you made.The handle, the squeegee material, the hardware and some wood glue will hold it together w no problem.

To prevent blowouts on the top section I use a flat squeegee and pull from the side of the board (rail to rail) instead of nose to tail. And don't pull as hard as you would when squeegeeing from nose to tail.

I so want to start doing this. But also making and shaping my own decks too. Any advice on how to get started??

Some good KZfaq channels to check out would be GoodRoads and Manak Skates, they do some of that stuff!

Hey! Looking to get into this, would you be able to give me the specifics of the printer you're using? Looking for it online but don't want to spend money on the wrong printer!
