I built myself a screenprinting jig out of some cheap wood and some legit hinges from a screenprinting store. If you want me to post some pics I can. It was really cheap, but remember that there's a whole shitload of other stuff that you need to buy other than the jig and screen themselves. You need ink, you need the solvent for the ink, you need emulsion, you need the solvent for the emulsion, you need an exposure unit, you need a heater to cure the ink, and a bunch of other shit that I'm forgetting right now. Your garage will also become a den of carcinogens and you will probably shave like 10 years off your life, but honestly it's totally worth it and yeah it will pay itself off.

I suggest you take a screenprinting class at your local community college or something.

Well, it certainly is less than the $15 per unit screen printing is threatening to cost.

not a huge sticker fan. that being said, my mellow tone clean chan/dirty chan is probably my favorite pedal. but i definitely prefer the paints
