So with all that said, you have to ask yourself what do you want to do in screen printing?
Do you want to do it as a hobby? If so there are many ways to save money.
Do you want to make money and grow into something that you can live on? Then you have ALOT more research to do.
Either way ask ask , and ask questions BEFORE you buy anything. That is my biggest piece of advice for anyone that has never pulled or pushed a squeegee.

Well like anything else in life, to earn money from your hobby is always a goal, but as of now it is a hobby. I have a full time career, and yes I agree about the research! For now, I'm going to enjoy the research and going forth. I will surely ask questions as long as you guys keep answering them with that great knowledge!!

Thanks again

If that is the case you might want to just look at making a DIY single color station with hinge clamps. You can TECHNICALLY do multicolor stuff if you figure it right... but it's not worth the hassle. You also get to learn the art of this business without much commitment and you have a piece of gear that you can always use later if you really wanted.
