If i have artwork on the front and back of the shirt how would i print and cure the neck label without over curing the other art? I also only have a ryonet flash dryer to cure at the moment. Any hep would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Another killer video bro love the knowledge and tips and tricks I got the neck label pack and one of your fonts in my shopping cart keep Killin it bro 😁👍✌️
Hell ya man! Make sure you check out with those things 😂
@@leestuart38 absolutely placing the order Wednesday Pay Day whoot whoot haha
Thanks bro.👍🏼 Thank you very much for sharing so many methods, I am being troubled by this problem and this video is very helpful for me🎨
Glad to help out man!
Thank You for this video. I'm just now trying start a small retail business and on some of the clothing, i want to add a tagless logo. I want to buy the machine to do it and your video gave me the ideal to do it... I need some tagless labels... It looks like, i got to get a hat press or shirt press.
Once again my man, a great video on the subject. " Oh my legs!" lol Keep up the great work.
My old man legs can't handle crouching so hard 😂
Thanks for the info man. I'm catching up on the rest of your videos. I Just subbed right now
Thanks a lot, glad the videos help 👊🏻
Great video Lee, thank you for sharing.
Thanks man 🤘🏻
I've been watching your video's as I'm planning to screenprint shirts for a cause I'm doing. Somehow ended up on your Amazon wish list, so I sent ya a book u wanted. Thanks for all the great videos!
No way! That's the coolest thing ever, thank you so much!
@@leestuart38 no problem! Your videos are gonna help me out a lot! It was the least I could do!
Hey man my book got here today so I wanted to come back and say thanks again! Super pumped that you did that. I posted it on my Instagram story but I didn't know how to tag you
Lee “get shit done right” Stuart. It’s rad to see someone actually take pride in what they do and not be afraid to share it with others. (By the way RAD was an awesome movie!) 😂. Thanks again. 🤙🏽
Thanks man. Always willing to share what I learn to help others out ✊🏻
Lee you're a G! Cheers for adding solid content to the knowledge pool man, we always appreciate your videos. Do you have any suggestions for printing neck lables on the extra-linty insides of sweaters and hoodies?
Glad to help man. You can make transfers for hoodies which is what a lot of people do, but for most hoodies I just print them right in without any issues
DOPE ! thanks for the input. Been using the Hat press to do neck labels. Still waiting for my pocket sleeves to come in. Keep PRESSIN my guy! 🤘😬🤘
Hell ya dude, your life will get so much easier being able to do them right at your screen printing press. They look and feel better too 👌🏻
I am subscriber, great information i have known this for years but i haven't seen a review on it.
Your a genius my brother....thanks for the videos
Could you make a video of you explaining about the colors what Photo Emulsion which brands etc. that would be very helpful :) huge follower of your channel and recently started my own brand
The flipping the shirt inside out on a heat press just saved me from buying a cap press for this purpose. I was about to buy it
Glad to help out man. The hat press will definitely be a lot faster and a better option though if you print labels often enough, but for once in a while stuff the inside out method is perfect 👌🏻
WOW... Great asset man. You'd got to be the most unselfish dude ever. Love your vids. Strength + Honor...
Just out here trying to help ✊🏻. Thanks dude
Solid video. Subscribed. 👍
Good stuff brother!!!
Man that's awesome. Makes me want to start printing shirts
You probably should, it's a good time
You are still our hero.
As usual awesome video with very helpful info.
Thanks man, happy to hear it helped out 👏🏻
@@leestuart38 I just purchased the templates and a Rogue Lab T-shirt. Keep up the good work, I'm learning a shit ton for my shop.
Thanks a lot man! Hope you like them both
Great video, as always Lee
Thanks dude ✊🏻
Beyond helpful. Thank you.
No problem dude, happy to help
Nice job... clean and fast.. congratulations... i am from brazil and folow your work... nice man
Thanks, hope it helps 🤘🏻
A huge fan of your work and I've been working on pretty similar stuff for my clothing brand. And just like to clarify something, isn't the print upside down ? For those raglan tees you test printed?
Love this video! Do you have any templates for the layout for printing the mesh?!
Thanks so much for your videos. They're super helpful! I've found a blank shirt that I like (Next Level 3600), but on the label it says "Do not iron decoration" and also has a "Do not iron" symbol as well. Is it still safe to use the plastisol ink transfer for the neck label? And can you use a regular iron if you don't have access to a heat press?
I like Lee Stuart vids, so informative,
Thanks!
Thanks for the video again. I just start my own company and everything looks so easy until you do it your self. I just ruined a order of 110 shirts. It will take a lot of practise to get the right print and setup. I cost me a lot of money but i'll keep going to make this work.
That's all you have to do, push through the mistakes. I've messed up a lot of shit along the way and still do, literally just messed up a few like 5 mins ago 😂
mistakes are part of the business I guess, I've been printing for years and I just burned a screen with my artwork backwards. rule of thumb in our business is to always have exrra shirts you're printing for a mistake here and there.
Hell yeah man, photo shoot of some of my stuff is coming, ill tag ya, you will see some of your influence🤘🏼🤘🏼🔥🔥
Hell ya man!
Thank you bru!
Dean at Studio 98 Great information Lee Thanks and keep it up
Thanks man 🤘🏻
Pretty informative bud... just sent you one of my designs..
Very informative 😎👍👍
Bought the template because we need to support each other! 😁 appreciate the work and tips!
Thanks so much!
Quick question. I’m new to this & interested in the template. However, I’m confused on what to print it on before heat pressing it. I have a cricut as far as what I’ve been using to put things on my shirts.
Hey Lee, I love your work and follow you religiously, you're a massive inspiration and soemday hopefully I can setup shop just like you. I wanna ask what transfer vinyl paper you us d? I have an inkjet printer, can I print these neck labels? On what paper though or is it vinyl? I'm using 100% cotton shirts from Bella. I heard you say plastisol? Will this work? Sorry for the spam questions Much love cheers & God bless
Thanks bro, subscribed.
Hell ya thanks dude 🤘🏻
Awesome video - thanks 💪👊
No problem dude, glad it helped 👊🏻
You are greate Bro. Thx for video!
Thanks for checking it out 👊🏻
Can you please do a vid on the colour separation you did for north of nine. And you should try out permaset super cover ink
Thank you for this video. What type of printing paper did you use?
Another awesome video! No questions on the neck labels and I might be taking advantage of your art files, thanks! But I notice you've got another template line on your palette which I'm guessing is for aligning your chest prints. Would like to see how you handle them, especially with different garments and sizes.
Thanks man. On my palettes I draw out a few reference lines to easily line things up to during setup and know where I'm at. Such as how far down from the collar, how far over for left chest, etc. Might be a good topic to cover actually
@@leestuart38 I always print the same distance down from the neckline and distance off centre but there's probably a better way to go. Just bought the label pack and picked up a shirt. International shipping's a bitch! lol ;)
Totally helpful thanks. Never saw one of those pocket platen used. Note: Whistler/ Canada is best place to ski in N.America
It's definitely a cool method to do these, I love it 👏🏻
That shirt heat press has a platten that is real weird shapped it has a square and then is kind of curved on both sides. I used that to apply transfer tags it doesn’t allow the heated plate to touch the garment if there’s a print on it
Dude!!!!!!!!! Great content
Thanks 🤘🏻
Hey brother watching your channel for a long time now love it , Brother can you tell me what t-shirts and hoodies you use, thanks and good luck👍✌️
Great video! I want know how much all machine and kits of this system ?
.Looks like a Next Level shirt in the video. Bella Canvas has the best shirt and tear away labels
Good stuff. I have good success with WB ink (CG 7) with a 230 screen, soft squeegee and light pressure.
Yup it'll work for some stuff, just not all like plastisol will. Something like a next level triblend is insanely thin and even with plastisol you have to be delicate, waterbased would blast through it in a hurry haha
Lee Stuart I’ve been hesitant to introduce plastisol into my shop. I’ve been really spoiled with the WB cleanup, but maybe it’s time to check it out!
Bro this shit is awesome. Definitely using this for merch line, and much appreciate the easy on the wallet tags :D Thanks brother, and greetings from a fellow Canadian :)
Glad to help! 🤘🏻
Nice video. Please am new here about to start this business. I didnt get the first black u printed. Which transfer paper did you use to get white on the black shirt? Thanks
GOOD JOB MAN
Thanks!
hey thanks for the vid. would you say plastisol is better than sublimation? thanks
Hey Lee, really enjoy your channel. Shouting you out from Kingston, Jamaica. Did you mention the mesh size you use for the labels? I typically print with plastersol but i want to ensure I do not print through the fabrics. I actually manufacture my products but want to move away from labels to tagless.
Yup the mesh count is mentioned in there. There's time stamps of each topic in the pinned comment I put at the top of the list 👍🏻
I have a lot of option for heat press but I need printer so which one is the best printer for beginners?
Hi what temperature did you use on the hat press machine and what pressure?
Great video btw!
Thanks!
You are the best man
Happy to help ✊🏻
You should make a video about best blank shirts to start a brand
Definitely one I plan on making
Can't you see the label on the outside of the shirt using gray on a light White shirt do you reduce your ink with reducer or soft hand
Thank you
Happy to help 🙌🏻
I'm wanting to start a brand here in South Africa. I'm busy doing my research and would like to find out from you a little bit of advice. Where to buy garments and how to know if they are a quality manufacturer. Any help would be great, please!
awesome.
What is best printer for neck label and front printing?
Lee are your neck label templates good to use if you’re doing heat pressing?
Dude thank you
Anytime, glad to help 🤘🏻
15:18 'refused to ship to Canada'. I get that all the time. Anyone would think we don't have a trade agreement!
It's insane how much this happens. It's just lazy people who don't want to take the 2 minutes to add some extra information on the shipping label
what paper did you used in the neck labels
Were i can see the link for vector neck label so i cant make my own thanks man
Good shit like always
Thanks man 👊🏻
What kind of paper and ink did you use to print the designs ?
Thanks bro..
Glad to help out 👌🏻
Whitch printer and paper should I use ?
*Can you use an iron with the plastisol heat transfers? Thanks for the great information*
I'm sure you could, but you aren't going to get the best results out of it because you need to apply even heat and pressure for them to be done properly. You can get very cheap heat presses from Amazon and eBay that will make it a lot easier for you
Whats the original brand of shirts do you use for your product lee? All the shirts look clean AF that you use.
What is the laser used for & what is it called?
need more regular videos man !!!!
I make then every Sunday
@@leestuart38 id watch monday right through to sunday lol love these videos !
What is the application you use for the create your logo ?
Thanks u for that bro ....
Glad to help 👍🏻
Never would've guessed u were in Canada. U definitely sound American to me. But hey thats just me, love the videos and all the shirts. Hopefully one day I'll be able to screen print, I'm thinking about getting a heat press soon to get started.
Everyone thinks I'm American haha, I did live there for a while so I guess something stuck. A heat press is a great way to get started, I started off with nothing but a hat heat press 🤘🏻
@@leestuart38 oh wow I can't believe u responded to this a year after it came out. Damn dude I don't see how u have enough time to fit all the things that u do in a day. I can tell with these well made videos that u put time and meticulous skill into everything u do. I will definitely be sending some money your way eventually to get some of those sweet ass shirts, and maybe some hats sometime in the near to distant future. Thanx for all the info u put out, if I ever do get some shirts going I'll send one your way. I feel that I almost owe u, because of all the very helpful info u, and Cam from the print life put out. I'll have to make sure its a good one, one that I think is the best design I can think of.
what length did you cut the sleeve pallet to?
what size of neck label is that bro. is there a recommended size?
So when exactly do you need a ca#? The rules arent clear im just trying to create a label for my shirts
Do we need a separate license to brand our clothing with neck labels
If you don't have a hat press and order shirts in bulk and don't want to ruin a shirt...he gave GREAT advice but you can also do the inside labels with the regular heat press method when the shirts arrive before you put the design on. Then you have labeled shirts by size to help you store them
Thats also a good piece of advice. Typically I don't label until after printing so I'm stuck in that habit and didn't even think of mentioning that you can do it beforehand 😂. Thanks dude 👌🏻
Lee Stuart I learned the hard way when I first got started. Ripped all the tags off my Bella Canvas shirts, did designs cause that was my focus annnnd had to figure out what size was what when orders came in lol. Keep up the great work
u r beautiful bro flowing in ur gift adding use value. u r insirational pushup winna!
I started my own apparel biz a few months ago, right now I'm getting all the printing done off-site. But I'm looking at working my way up to screen printing all my apparel myself. Have any tips or a video with tips and tricks that would help me out? :) I think I've watched like 20 of your videos in a row.
The biggest thing is ask yourself how badly you want to be a screen printer, because it takes way more time and dedication than people realize to be good at it and produce a quality product. It took me a year of doing it full time every day to get remotely good at it, and even then I still wasn't anywhere near where I am now. But if you ask yourself and the answer is yes, then patience is key. Like I said it takes time and dedication, and a ton of failure. You have to keep going and learn by printing as much as possible, it's the only way. It definitely helps to know the theory and a few little tricks like myself and a few others show on KZhead, but nothing compares to learning by doing in my opinion. Good luck with whatever route you choose 👊🏻
@@leestuart38 thanks dude. Appreciate the feedback.
Great video.....what size did you cut the pocket slayer down to ?
About half the length that it was. They're definitely way too long
Hey, what are those sweet squeegees you use?
Saludos desde Nicaragua Lee Stuart
Hello, could you tell me, where did you buy that template that you show in the minute: 14:04 ?
Where can i get that secret tool?
What about sizes? How can i get away with not having dedicated sizes on each heat transfer tag?
