SCREEN DRYING RACK

Well, my plan for today was to build myself a screen rack but the weather here in Las Vegas did not cooperate with me.  Since I moved my screen printing shop to the garage I can't use my tools in there because of the dust.  I was planning to build my rack in the back yard but it is VERY windy and cold.  The cold is fine but I did not feel like having saw dust blown in my face and eyes.  The weather is supposed to be bad for a few days so my screen rack will have to wait.

At the moment, my drying rack is in the bedroom closet and only has four slots. 

This works fine most of the time but I have a total of 11 screens and at times I need to dry more then four at a time.  Things become very time consuming when I have to wait for screens to dry.  I also want to have all of my screens protected.  I noticed a small tear in one of my screens and I am sure it is from having to shift things around all the time.  The tear does not affect my prints so far but eventually I will need to have the screen re-meshed

I do not mind building a rack but it would be nice if I could just buy one instead.  :)

Eventually I will buy one of these rolling racks but for now I will have to build my own.  :)

Thanks for checking out my blog!
