The starter kit that gets you printing for ~$100-150. Screens, squeegee, ink, emulsion, most of what a home setup needs to learn the basics, without buying every piece separately.
For a basic home setup you need screens, ink, squeegees, emulsion, and a way to expose screens. The Speedball screen printing starter kit has most of what you need for around $100-150, screens, squeegee, ink, and emulsion. It's good for learning the basics.
For ink, stick with water-based like Speedball or Jacquard when you're starting, way easier to clean up than plastisol. The one thing the kit doesn't include is a strong light to expose screens; a 500-watt halogen work light works fine for about $30.
Almost, screens, squeegee, ink, emulsion. You'll add a strong light (a $30 500W halogen) to expose screens.
Start water-based (Speedball or Jacquard), far easier to clean up while you're learning.
