Hello, I just secured 800 square feet of space to start a screenprinting business (3 car garage size). I'm on a very tight budget to buy equipment. I'd like to build as much of it as I can. I only have about $500 to $800 to spend, so I understand I will be very limited in what I can do.

My question is, what supplies should I buy first and can you point me to directions to build a small press? Also, please link me to any place you recommend to buy supplies from. All lists of equipment also appreciated, and how much I should spend on each supply.

I just want to silkscreen t-shirts for some local businesses, 1-4 color to start. I need to do so from start to finish. Thanks!
