There are some changes happening with Catspit Productions. I am focusing on equipment sales and I am no longer selling supplies. This decision was mostly made due to my health. The screen-printing business is changing as well. The Phoenix storefront is closed. Please understand that I am still here. I sell equipment. I can help you with most any equipment you may need.
I will continue selling and servicing all my customers past, present, and future. I offer the complete line of products from AWT, HIX, Ranar, RhinoTech, ImageTech, Tekmar, and more. Please contact me for your next equipment purchase.
As a result of closing the storefront, I also have screen printing equipment available in Phoenix for pick up. Items like flash cure units, tabletop exposure units, a screen rack, a Ranar numbering system, a tabletop poster press and more. Please call me for inventory I am looking to liquidate. There is a quick list below.
Thanks to everyone who came in and supported me over 9 years. I am grateful and ready to take on the next challenge. Email me anytime for equipment or some screen printing help.

Check out this detailed look at the Hix Premier screenprinting press. This is a benchtop machine. It is also convertible. Ultimately, it can become a 6 color 6 station floor press. In this quick video we look at some of the cool features of this printing press. This piece of equipment has heavily cast aluminum parts and thick steel screen clamps. Follow along as I show you around this professional screenprinting press. You might hear some crickets from the shop and notice a little dust on the press. It has been above 110 degrees F here for a long time. While I brought you some details of the Hix Premier tabletop printing press, I may have overlooked some details in video making. How do I get rid of crickets anyway? Enjoy, and thanks for watching!

Here is a basic educational screen-printing video featuring the HIX Premier 4 color 2 station tabletop rotary press. I created a couple of simple 1 color screen print designs for black and white ink. This video is about the artwork I made for white plastisol ink. Of course, you could use water-based ink as well. Either way sometimes the design makes the print. Follow along as I make the screen, set up on press, and print a couple of tee shirts. Do you have a lot of humidity in your screenprinting shop? Does your film stick to the emulsion? See how I take the film off the screen in that case. Pay attention and you are likely to learn something in this tutorial screenprinting video. Enjoy, and thanks for watching!

Okay so here’s a new screen printing video where I try to give some advice on an age old question I am asked quite often. How many prints will a gall or quart of ink make? That question is difficult to answer. There are many variables which affect ink consumption. So, take a coffee break and watch this short video in which I give you my humble opinion on the matter. Here’s a secret tip, if you’re not making money screen printing it’s most likely not that you’re printing too much ink. It’s probably something else. As always thanks for watching and please subscribe.
