Screen Printing

I haven't seen many threads of other peoples shops, so i thought id tell you a little about me and my shop...

Im 21 years old, i opened my shop when i was 19.
I started printing when i turned 17, always had an interest in graphic design and the printing process. At 16 i started my own clothing line "Ghostwork Inc"
Years later it evolved into "Ghostwork Ink".
I started out of my parents basement with a ancient Atlas 6/4, home made wood pallets (lol), a no name ebay flash dryer, and a halogen work light as a exposure unit...hey you gotta start some where!
Soon after getting the hang of printing i made a "myspace page" for my printing. I got A LOT of business via myspace and the same for facebook today!

Attached are a couple of photos around my shop, let me know what ya think! Leave your negative comments to your self OLD haters ;)

Gotta love the Vastex! I notice a Buddha strategically place on the upper carousel. Mine sports a sock monkey as a mascot.

That's awesome, I think every press deserves something in the middle, I'm obsessed with buddhas

i used to have a instents holder in the middle and i used to burn them while i printed, because i hate the smell of screen opener and other chems, but its kinda unacceptable when you have a store front haha

Finally! Someone that has a similar story to me haha. I'm 22, printing since I was 17, got all my basement equipment when I was 19 also. Looks like your doing better then I am, but I'm really making an effort on this online marketing and things are starting to pick up. I'm making some changes to the basement shop now, I'll post some pics when it looks worthy enough lol. Keep up the good work.
