What's everybody like?

I really like the Rubbermaid/Uline flat tops, but wish that they had an extra
shelf in the middle for squeegees/floods/quarts of ink.

We had some vertical standing carts made that are pretty cool, but finding
that we like the horizontal Rubbermaid style better.

Attached are plans for the carts we currently use for shirts, very practical hardware store high tech.

We have a screen rack we designed that I will give to you at the July meeting. It's the same one we use at the shows in the Yellow room. Made half size with a work top they should last a lifetime. You are free to give them out if you think they are useful.

At Harlequin we cut a typical 20 screen rack in half. Welded a flat surface to the top. Rack would contain up to eight screens, eight ink buckets. The front had two large eyebolts that would hold two five gallon containers. One for dirty squeegees, utensils, etc and one for clean ones. On the front was an eyebolt for hanging the sample with print engineering instructions. When a job is finished it would get whisked away to a teardown area where all items are cleaned and stored for the next go around. About as efficient as it gets.
