As a printer I am always interested in meeting other printers, getting geeky over inks and mesh counts, curious about their set up and seeing how they do stuff, so I've decided to take this further and put together a Zine where I would like to include interviews with as many different screen printers as possible from someone printing in their basement to commercial business'. Basically anyone who bloody loves it.
Feel free to promote your business, include website and email address' and whatever. Think of it as free advertisement, just more personal and in depth.
I would really appreciate you taking a few minutes to answer the questions as best as you can, they may be edited in the Zine but feel free to get carried away!
Also if you know anyone who might be interested, please forward this to them. All replies need to be sent to kay@cutoutshop.com. Let me know if you have any questions, would like to be sent any copies of the Zine to have or to distribute.
Thank you
