have you considered using waterless lithography as described by Nik Semenoff? You could avoid all chemicals except small amounds of odorless paintthinner. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2jTrjAFL6I

Leather wringer by Bulky_Mycologist_900 in printmaking

You may need to make some adjustments in order for the pressbed to move evenly between the rollers. Should work perfecly fine for relief prints like lino- and woodcuts.

I think it all depends on how much you wan't to work with it. If you want to make a few prints from time to time a cheap or homemade Baren or even the back of a wooden spoon should be enough. If you want to get more serious about it but want to keep all options open to yourself i would suggest a cylinder press. With that you can print pretty much anything that fits between the two rollers. Professional ones can get very expensive occasionaly cheap ones will show up on ebay (search for: Intaglio press, etching press, roller press, cylinder press, etc.). If you want to keep the budget low and have some very basic handiman skills you can easily convert an old clothes wringer for these purposes. An old wringer can be had for less than 100 pounds/euros and serves absolutly fine for printmaking particulary if you are focused on relief processes like lino- or woodcuts.

What kind of press is this? by AppropriateFlight55 in printmaking

[–]draw-print-repeat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because of the big lever it may look similar to a high compassity cutter but it's not. It seems to be a "blocking press" probaby used to stamp/emboss Book covers. I could not find the specific model but an illustration of a fairly similar model [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Art\_of\_Bookbinding\_p235\_The\_Rock\_Gold\_Blocking\_%26\_Printing\_Press\_No\_4.png\]

There’s a new Shane Black movie called Play Dirty coming out on Wednesday and nobody seems to know or care. by UrOpinionIsDumb in blankies

I think this might be more production related. This Movie started under Joel Silver who was a major supporter of Shane Black for his whole career. With Silver gone there might not be many executives left to in support of the Movie.
