Screen Printing Advice

[Joe Highton]

Right, I would like to start screen printing from home, I have got two A4 sized screens, and picking up some ink and a squeegee this week.

My main issue is exposure, I have looked into getting a 500 Watt Halogen light (youtube screen printing videos told me to) but I have heard they do not work well with fine detail images - most of the stuff I want to print will be pen drawings.

UV boxes seem massively expensive, so.. should I give the 'halogen light way' a go? Or, would it be a better to find somewhere nearby that will do the exposure process for me? Cheers!
