so you wanna screen your own boards?

some peeps have been asking me where they can find good resources on the internet for screen printing their wooden planks. below are a couple of excellent sites, where i got my references from. it's easy to screen boards, if you have some basic experience in screening t-shirts or posters. the steps are almost the same except that you have to customise your own frame, if you want one to have a graphic that covers the whole base of the board from the nose to the tail. otherwise, using a simple and rectangular frame, big enough to screen the middle of the base will do. it's also not that difficult to build your own frame if you have worked in a technical lab or wood shop in school. anyway, read and comprehend the sites below. have fun!
if you need more informations about this, please do not hesitate to drop me a line here.

peace.
