Real Colloidal Silver
The benefits of colloidal silver have been known for centuries, with many throughout the passage of time experiencing the benefits of colloidal silver treatment. This product has unique abilities, and these include being powerfully antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal. Even some of the most powerful biological threats known to man such as anthrax and MRSA are no match for the ever vigilant colloidal silver water. A good quality colloidal silver preparation will contain both ions and colloids. When silver colloidal solutions are composed from 40% of suspended silver and 60% of ionic silver, you can rest assured that you have a quality mixture.
These days many of us want to know how to make colloidal silver, but still the science is fickle – with it safer to purchase a pre prepared quality product. Manufacturers now have created a colloidal silver gel and also a colloidal silver nasal spray. Many of us would be surprised to know that colloidal silver preparations were the number one solution for doctors from around the turn of the century, right up until the time that penicillin came onto the market. Needless to say that big pharma companies, now having a compound that initially was very effective and more importantly patentable – the colloidal silver use didn’t stand a chance. Regardless, the many colloidal silver benefits are irrefutable, with this colloidal silver cure being here to stay…

Silkscreen press
Silkscreen printing is one of the many ways to create many prints. It is actually a piece of art. The name silk printing might be demoralizing to many people but it is easy to learn. It is also a lot of fun. A large surface is required for creating silk screen art. The materials that are required this art are easy to find. Even the local supply store can provide a person with most of the supplies that he might need. Even the internet is an interesting place to look for such things. There are so many online stores and even the company websites can provide a person with what he needs. The supplies that are required for silk screen printing are silk fabric, pencil, Vellum, Squeegee, Design, Fabric plant, Painter’s tape, Pre Made Silk Screen, Newspaper and Exacto Knife. One has to draw the required design on the vellum. Placing the vellum on the design and tracing with a pencil can do the job. By placing the vellum in a window during daylight or on an artist table, one can see through the vellum. This causes a first print of the design that has to be later printed using silk screen printing. If the printing is in different colors, more than one screen will be required. That is, every single color requires a different screen. These designs must later be cut using a craft knife that is sharp. These steps are simple however, they do require some time to be carried out in a proper manner. The first vellum tape is to be attached behind the silk screen with the help of painter’s tape. Pre made silk screens are available in most supply stores. Building a silk screen is also a good idea as it does require some practice and a person gets lots of it by making his own silk screen. Paper towels are required. The silk fabric is to be placed on these paper towels and the silk screen is placed on the fabric. Fabric paint is to be poured on the silk screen. The squeegee is to be placed in the paint. One has to pull it along the screen towards the user. Holding the squeegee at an angle of 45 degrees provides the best results. Once the bottom of the screen is reached, the angle of the squeegee is to be reversed. It is to be pushed to the top of the screen in one smooth movement. It is allowed to dry. Other layers of paint are to be applied after the first layer dries.
