Side hustles are becoming more and more common as folks realize the traditional 9 to 5 doesn’t cut it any longer. We all yearn for new ways to pursue our passions, buy the things we need or want, and lower our financial worries. It doesn’t take long once you calculate the cost of your living expenses to realize that there is barely anything leftover at the end of the month, which is not cool, at all.

The traditional work schedule is not enough to live the life you dream about. Are you ready to invest in yourself? If so, consider jumping into screen printing by starting off with the Riley Hopkins 150 1 Color 1 Station Press.

For more than 30 years, Riley Hopkins has developed high-quality, economical equipment that has jump started thousands of printers’ careers. Now, the brand will bring more printers into the industry with the Riley Hopkins 150 Press. 

If you’re looking to make screen printing your side gig or need a press for live printing, the Riley 150 will do the trick. Stronger than a DIY press yet simpler than a Riley Jr Hopkins Press, the Riley 150 will produce stellar prints without hurting your wallet. One of the coolest features of the press is the ability to change out platens. Having access to various platens means you can print youth apparel, neck labels, chest prints, etc. Whether you’re starting an Etsy shop, printing for a local business, or live printing, the Riley 150’s durability and versatility will give you a strong foothold in the industry and the opportunity to expand your brand.

Setting up the Riley 150 is a piece of cake. To assemble the press, all you need is two, ½ inch wrenches and two 9/16 inch wrenches. You can screw the press down into an existing table top or work bench.
