"I'm more of an idea man, myself..."

Hi,

So I have an upcoming craft project.

It does not involve knitting.

It does involve soiling my lily-white aristocratic hands with the muck of the physical universe.

Here's what I want to do:

I want to take a piece of fabric (here, I'm thinking something sturdy and outdoors-y like canvas) and print a grid pattern on it. Assume I'm making a portable checkerboard (not actually true, but close enough for example's sake). What's an efficient way to do that? Assume that in the Good/Fast/Cheap triad, I pick Good and Fast, but will sacrifice some Good to improve the Cheap.

Go forth, Internet Minons, and bring me answer!

later
Tom

Screen and cleaning fees could hit $25-50 just for a simple setup. After that it's really cheap to screen them one after the other.

I'm relatively certain that mizarchivist still has a silk-screening rig from her runs of making Serenity shirts.
