what durometer do you use...
any one out there that uses a one arm press what durometer do you use on your squeegees, i use medium when i print by hand. i've had the table for years and am barely starting to use the one arm and the first time i used it with a medium squeegee it seemed to flimsy. any suggestions?

70-75 - don't press so hard, and make your angle more up and down, less flopped over, the blade won't bend as easy.

I love 70-75. I hardly ever use my harder squeegees anymore.

I think I posted a pic back when I got it. It took me a few jobs to get the squeegee/flood angle and pressure worked out, but now it's all dialed in. Registration is damn near perfect. When I think of all the ridiculous work-arounds and constraints the the Lawson required, I wonder why I relied on it so long. My capabilities have expanded. I'm keeping the Lawson set up and have done a few jobs on it because: -I can haul ass on it, faster than the Saturn -smaller screens = less emulsion and easier cleanup -totally adequate for many jobs that are low-coverage, 1-color, small size, etc. -It's quiet because I run it off-contact without vacuum. -backup, workflows, etc The Lawson was a VW bug. The Saturn is a Mercedes. Nice thing about a VW bug is that you can fix it with a swiss army knife. Now I need to get some floodbars with wings.
