Ink plays a really big part creamy inks print very good thru just about any mesh Oh and sharp blades don't hurt. On the single stroke it really helps on wet on wet printing of the ink build up on the back of the screens.

My press will be a full size Horizon.
I am just going to take it slow and practice.
I really will need to address my dryer issue. I was thinking with space and electrical issues the Vastex Econored I 54" would be a good fit as the specs say 30Amps http://www.vastex.com/products/InfraredDryers/ECI.php
If I do that I will probably need to downgrade the compressor from the used rotary screw to a 5hp single stage compressor.

I can't recomend a single stage air compressor.... it won't hold up to long term usage.
An all air machine really needs a two stage compressor.

A two stage with chiller would be upwards of 3K. The used rotary is 2K with dryer. Its just hard trying to balance everything with limited electrical.

You can come in on a new IR 2 stage 7HP 80 gal for under $2000. Check Northern Tool. They even have free shipping. You can pickup a used chiller for around $500.
