Don't waste your time with other books. Read this first! I screwed around with other books, and even a few video tapes before running across this. I underestimated the book at first (mainly due to the title-it sounded to me like one of those "I'll show you how to make money!" garbage books) But, I was presently surprised, and my shirts didn't turn out well until I read this.

It is written by Scott Fresner who is one of the industry's leaders, and he also runs a screen printing school in AZ. Many of the other books I've seen are on a craft level, or talk about ways of doing things that are from the 70's and way out of date.

This book will give you a good overview of the whole process, equipment used and your options at several price levels (home made to large production), and even has plans to make your own press. It is a valuable resource that will save you lots of time and money.
