The wooden screen frame is sitting there in S.A. and we could get it and give it a try. The part we'd have to figure out is the drying. The electric flash dryer is almost an essential part. Not only does it dry them in a few seconds so you don't have to have them laying all around drying for hours BUT it makes the ink stick to the shirt better. I think some inks may need it and some don't. I don't know.
We may have to consult the scientists from Super Happy Fun Land.
You want to do it, Kim wants to do it, Taylor and Evan want to do it. I think we have enough interest if we can figure out a plan. I'll go take a photo of the simple shirt press I have and post it up here. Just for old time sake, that's what I'd like to use to do it.
Maggie, I'm going to be talking to Chris soon and I'm sure he knows how because he gets them to you every year but we need to get a box of these shirts delivered to your Hong Kong pad. And right away too so you can wear them during the 'round the world broadcast. Email me at my gmail address.
WHAT: The Woodzie WHAT? Festival In The Woods HOW: Coleman Lanterns WHEN: Next Woodzie is Spring 2009 BRING: Your Camping Stuff, A Casserole And A Woodzie State Of Mind. WHERE: Near FM 1102 and Hoffman Lane in New Braunfels, TX
The WOODZIE is a very small, very cool, very simple one day music festival on 32 tree covered acres in the Texas Hill Country. It's not commercial in any way, not associated with any business, religion or ulterior motive; it's just us. There is no charge. Great music, great food, a great time strictly for those relaxed enough to appreciate a fine day out in the country. It's all word of mouth - the bottom line is that if you are reading this you and your friends and family, as long as they are peaceful souls, are welcome. Please bring a covered dish to help feed everybody - this is a singer/songwriter event but also very much a big potluck bar-b-que dinner and nature experience. Having a huge picnic and playing guitars out in the woods is pretty hard to beat. Try to get here by early Saturday afternoon and yes you can drive out on Saturday night but please try to camp over - that's part of what makes this thing unique. Bring your songs, we sing around the campfire all night. If you're lucky enough to be able to make the time to get out here you'll never forget it.

Hey Leslie, I can't find that post where you were talking about making t-shirts ourselves - but I'm still interested. Is that still on?

If anybody knows about screen printing, speak up.
Nice modeling Evan! You're looking cool and mysterious. Drives all the girls crazy I bet! :P
