Please find some links and notes from the 2 Regular Guys Podcast. Matt Marcotte of T&J supplies and Marcotte.ink sits down with Aaron and Terry to talk standardization for screen print training. Matt brings his passion for education and his own shop-tested experience to bear, discussing everything from establishing standards in your shop, to his involvement with helping out the next generation of printers through his involvement with SkillsUSA, when it’s time to move from manual to automatic presses, and even to the age-old debate of squeegee push vs. pull. Join us for an animated discussion between our own 2 Regular Guys and an all-around booster for screen printers everywhere as they break down the ‘secrets’ of the decorating industry.
