  1. go to walmart n buy a thing called transfer paper something or other its in the arts n crafts aile every thing is done on ur computer (if ya gots a printer) put on with an iron i beleive n all ya gotta pay is like 20 something dollars waaaaay cheaper then buyin all the special stuff n waaaaay cooler cuz n e thing can go on a shirt that u can dream of
  2. To make the silk screen machine itself (the frame, etc to print the shirts with) go here for step by step instructions including a supply list. http://www.ehow.com/how_4905410_make-silk-screen-machine.html As far as making the prints, you'll need the squeegee (a hard piece of flat rubber or buy a window cleaning squeegee), emulsion, a spot lamp for setting the emulsion, a stencil if you want or you can make your own if you can draw, fabric paint of as many colors as you wish, and cleaning supplies for after you're all done. Here's a good DIY site for silk screening http://nomediakings.org/doityourself/howto_silkscreen_posters_and_shirts.html
