I think most everyone agrees that the ISS Long Beach show is THE biggest and best show for printers.  We've even sucked in a few artists.   Its three solid days of a good time.  Always a lot going on but plan on dinner at the mansion Saturday night....

Here's a glimpse of a past year....

Hi there, I'm wondering what would be the ideal package for a beginner? I'm just opening my own shop without any actual training other than hands on from the last 2 years of hobby printing. Is it worth going to all the seminars and all the workshops? What could a first timer expect to learn from these shows?

[Gabe]

Huh u said free  I`m in
I think all froggie`s disiples should go in for free anyway

[Frog]

Heck guys, I have not been to a trade show since I quit running die stamp presses in 1986! I have never gone to a screen printing show, and am looking forward to Long Beach as my first.
As for free, you don't need me to help you in that regard. The show itself has free pre-registration, as Jill linked, and most industry manufacturers and distributors should also have passes or codes, especially as the time approaches.

And for the record Jill, Frogs are amphibians!

I will be there. I am looking forward to the classes. I went last year and they were good and I met a bunch of good people. It would be cool to have a meeting place for everyone on here. Maybe saterday night. It would be nice to put a face to some of these screen names.

[DILLON]

What happens in the classes? I'm pretty sure I'm gonna sign up for the whole shebang, I can use a lot of help! I'm down to meet..

[bimmridder]

Go to every class you can. I go to classes even if I've already been to them.I always pick something up. Plus you'll meet lots of cool people. Maybe even Andy!

[Screened Gear]

The classes are worth it. Even if you know what your doing. I find that every screen printer does things a little differant. Last year I learned more from the guy next to me then the guy teaching. He had a really big shop in orange county and really helped me with what size of shop to get. He even saved me a few thousand by helping me with points on negotiating the contract. Always ask questions no matter how stupid you may look. Questions costs you nothing, mistakes cost thousands.

I will be there Friday to Sunday.

Shows a little over a month away so lets get this back to the top.

I'll be there Friday morning and leaving Sunday afternoon.

Anyone want to meet for dinner Fri - Sat night?

[JBLUE]

Lets hook up John. You and my business partner can share stories of the custom logo days.

[Frog]

Okay John, I got it sticky for ya.

Lets hook up John. You and my business partner can share stories of the custom logo days.

I've never met Rob.. that would be a fun night as I'm sure we both have some fantastic stories about those days.

After dinner is the Irish pub directly across the street from the Con center. I've stumbled home a few times from there in the wee hours of the morning from a few to many Guinness

[lemorris]

I'm there, lookin forward to meeting the Frog amongst others.
