How many screens do you have?

I have about 50-60 roller frames. I would like to at least double/tripple it. I just don't have the room. We are bursting at the seems. I am storing 2500 shirts at a bay in my building until I can get the ones I am printing out tomorrow.

111 good frames with mid to high tension, 20 statics that we use for simple one color stuff on lights and a crap load of empty frames that need to have mesh put in them.  I need at least 150 good screens and I'd like to have 200 by the end of the year.  With ganging images on probably 95% of our jobs, we are running through 20+ screens per day.  Some of our more popular screens are being cycled through multiple times per week, and it's taken a toll on them.

23x31's with mesh:
20-static alums
54-shurloc ez frames
57-M3 newman rollers

Blank frames with no mesh:
7-shurloc ez
100-M3 newman roller
6-MZX newman rollers
20-18x20 mzx (old composite corners)
2-panel frames
20 18x20 mzx

tpitman:
50+ retensionables, most 18x20 MZX, a handful of 23x26 MZX, and 3 large statics I used to use for yard signs.

'had to go and count . . . 102 total. 2 are down need new mesh. About 30 EZ frames, rest are statics. Some of the statics are actually in decent shape, small number is pretty loose and at the end of their life.
We go through about 30 screens per day. Somewhat slow now and an only doing about 15-20, but have gone through as many as 50.
Hiring a full time screen tech now, between reclaiming, exposing, coating and re-stretching it will be pretty close to full day's worth of work. I am taking into account that just starting ppl are slow and get faster with time, so yes it will be only about 30 screens per day right now. If he's done early, he can help on the press!

I think I have about 8 M3 Roller frames that I just reuse constantly.  Its a pain cleaning/reclaiming them a bunch but just yesterday I ordered 10 more M3's along with newman panels, so I'm excited about that!  Yeah!
