Abstract: A device and method for positioning a silk screen frame containing a silk screen against a large, smooth, flat surface such as glass. A pair of hand operated suction cups are mounted in spaced apart positions on an elongate mounting member. The suction cups are adapted to be secured by vacuum to the flat surface. A pair of clamps are mounted on the elongate mounting member between the suction cups. The clamps are adapted to clamp the edge of a silk screen frame and maintain the silk screen frame in flatwise position against the flat surface. The various silk screen frames containing separate silk screens of the design to be applied on the flat surface can be successively clamped in place in substantially identical positions on the flat surface, and if any one of the silk screen frames has to be repositioned after it has been removed from the device, it can quickly be reclamped in substantially the identical position as its original position before being removed.
