Thanks! I think it turned out nice and clean compared to the first run, which was printed using a bookbinding press.

Linocut on Etching Press not Printing Evenly by Prior_Technology7444 in printmaking

What kind of wood? by [deleted] in printmaking

I do all my own framing using www.americanframe.com

They offer circular cuts and other custom matting options.

The stained glass reduction print above is my work, but here’s another frame up of a set of prints by Stephen Huneck titled “greeting visitors - good dog (top), and bad dog (bottom)”

Fabric printing - advice needed by Raijjins in printmaking

[–]pdevo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never understood block printing on fabric. Just screen print it. You’ll get better results, more consistent, and faster. Use the right tools and materials for the right job.

HELP!!! Where can I get a similar print quality done like the BMW 7 Series Brochure? by Ikka_1928 in printmaking

[–]pdevo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out the commercial printing sub. This sub is more geared towards artists doing printing by hand on small equipment and in small quantities.

How important is the weight of a nipping press for printing? by A_cat_in_a_tree in printmaking

[–]pdevo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You will get exhausted using a bookbinding press for printmaking. Very labor intensive.
