RSSHandmade Detroit did this awesome video review of the Yudu screen printing machine. It has a hefty pricetag, but this video review has even me convinced that it it might be worth it. Via Core77.

There is a screen printing walkthrough for $67 on diyTeeShirts.com that has way better instruction and even includes plans and a video tutorial how to build your own machine. When it's built, it blows the doors off the Yudu machine. It also doesn't pretend you have to spend millions of dollars on a few ounces of ink.

The idea is nice, but the design of the machine seems kinda cheap. The sticky platen is a ridiculous waste; eight bucks for only a few uses? I don't think so. Two emulsion sheets for twenty dollars? Bite me. Not even worth the $300 price tag!

to me this doesn't seem to be any easier than using a regular screen that's about that size, and it's definitely more expensive.
