Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison
So, is this about ink transfers, or the transfer of ink from screen to shirt?
how nerdy is this going to get? can we have some formulas and microscope pictures? vector diagrams?pierre
Intrigued... And much more interested in the hands on experience than I would be on the theory and science side of things. No offense, Pierre.

As for what we will talk about the attendees will steer the focus; some will come to Ft. Wayne to ask WHAT [answers] others will want to know WHY [knowledge] many will want a mix of WHAT & WHY but my favorites will query WHY NOT [wisdom]. Greg created and then has invited us into an environment wherein together we can search for the truth without fear of recrimination and satisfy they WHAT’S, WHY’S & WHY NOT’S.
I am starting & confirming a rumor that Joe Clarke will be mentoring a hands on, get your fingers inky Ink Transfer Workshop at Mind's Eye Graphics in Decatur IN in the near future. Still working on details but this is likely to be a sell out as we want to insure all participants get maximum value for their time.No registration details yet, but soon.......
This is not going to be math or science class, I will have done the math and science long before anyone arrives at MEG. To the contrary the session will be a how-to approach for constructing a “pump” in which the individual elements work together to transfer the main component—the ink. The principles [not theories] which we will explain and discuss are not common knowledge but they are common sense so each attendee can return to their garage, shop, plant or home planet and immediately implement the new found approach.Part and parcel to the challenges and complexity of screen, we have an uncommon chance to increase our value proposition via manufacturing. We mavericks are allowed / forced to engineer, select, sub-assemble, combine, create and clone and there are a countless number of ways to take each step. What makes screen-printing difficult is the individual elements may each be top quality but they are rarely compatible. We've changed that!As for what we will talk about the attendees will steer the focus; some will come to Ft. Wayne to ask WHAT [answers] others will want to know WHY [knowledge] many will want a mix of WHAT & WHY but my favorites will query WHY NOT [wisdom]. Greg created and then has invited us into an environment wherein together we can search for the truth without fear of recrimination and satisfy they WHAT’S, WHY’S & WHY NOT’S.Of course I am one of a growing, gaggle of geeks who will gather near Greg’s after hours to wade-on and to dive-into a quagmire of techno-babble, all are welcome, none are required.
