Great input on this.  For those of you with Cts do you have any trouble with head strikes on a coated 26 mesh or do you use a film printer?

With an M&R cts you can order a thinner profile pusher frame to account for thick micron stencils FYI... Unless your doing 400 micron or more though I don't think you should see a problem. We run 100 micron stencils all the time on ours... The only thing we change is we print uni direction as I feel the calibration would need adjusted for high micron stencils.

That's good to know about the lower profile pusher. 
Good to meet you at the show.
It's not a job if you love doing it.

We've done 400 micron stencils with no problem.  Make sure your emulsion is smooth or use the laser and you'll be fine.
