The 40 mesh is a new screen designed for use specifically with the YUDU glue and new foil and glitter textiles out. Personally I find that I prefer to use the 220 mesh screens for all of my screen printing. The 220 is used for screen printing on paper, the higher number of threads allows for greater detail. Also available are 220 mesh and new 40 mesh screens. Included with the YUDU is a 110 mesh screen, 110 meaning per square inch there are 110 threads creating the openings for your ink to flow.
The top has a lightboard with two different light settings, one being used to expose screens to whatever design you have chosen, and the other being a less bright light allowing you to properly place your designs, before you “burn” them into the screen. The machine itself serves as an all-in-one screening station you can dry and hold up to two screens in a holding compartment in the lower part of the YUDU. With some care the screens are reusable, allowing you to create as many or as few screen printings as you want. With the YUDU you can create your own screens, with your own designs, to use for printing. Flash forward to the future, I had just been introduced to the wonderful machine that is the Cricut Expression and I was looking into what else Provo Craft had to offer, immediately the YUDU screen printer caught my eye.īeing able to personalize textiles is a huge thing for me I love being able to customize anything I can get my hands on. I remember that the screen printing machine was huge, and that I just somehow knew that screen printing was a kind of special thing to be doing yourself. We all got to make t-shirts with the camp logo on them. My first memory of screen printing would be at summer camp, years ago.
