The smooth surface and soft texture of the SoftCut lino sheets makes cutting easy: blades will glide through with minimal effort. SoftCut prints well onto a range of surfaces including paper, card and fabric. It can even print onto curved surfaces due to its flexibility. The surface of the lino is cut away using special lino cutters or a knife to form the basis of the lino print. The block is inked up with a roller (known as a brayer) and this creates a positive image when printed onto paper or fabric. The printing process can be done by hand or with a press. You can use water-based lino ink, oil-based lino ink, or a block printing medium mixed with paint.

Speedball Supergraphic Black Ink is the flagship colour in the Speedball Professional Relief Ink range. Developed in consultation with the printmaker and tutor Bill Fick, this is a rich, velvety black which holds detail well and will not clog up a block halfway through an edition. Like all colours in the range, this ink is a lightfast and fully archival oil-based printmaking ink which can be washed up with just soap and water.Speedball Professional Relief Inks are designed for all types of relief printing, especially linocut and woodcut. Because this ink can be thinned with water, it is preferable to print onto dry paper.This is an 16oz (473ml) tin of Supergraphic Black (PBK7, Speedball Lightfastness rating I). It is suitable for mixing with any of the Speedball Professional Relief Ink colours. To increase the transparency of this ink, add Speedball Professional Relief Transparent Base.

Jackson's Polished Copper Etching Plate, made with 0.9mm polished copper plate for etching. The polished surface is protected with a plastic film so simply requires degreasing before applying ground.The back of the plate will require the application of an acid resistant stop out. Copper is a harder metal than zinc and plates will withstand more printing. It is also idealy suited to non-etching intaglio techniques such as drypoint and engraving and mezzotint.

Wood engravers use Tint Tools to create incisions on the surface of woodblocks. As woodblocks are inked with a roller, these recessed incisions do not receive ink. They therefore show up white in the final print.This is a medium-fine Tint Tool (#3), designed for cutting straight lines of a constant width. The trade engravers of the Nineteenth century referred to a series of parallel lines as a 'tint'. They used tints to depict colour and form; by varying the width and spacing of the lines that made up their tints, they were able to attain a sophisticated range of mid-tones, between the white of the paper and the black of the ink.This tool is not designed to cut curves; use a Graver or (preferably) a Spitsticker for that. The shank of the tool may be damaged if you force it to make corners.This tool was made from high carbon tool steel in the United States by E.C. Lyons. It is supplied factory-sharp, but it has not been honed to a fine edge. Please note, engraving tools are known by different names in the UK and the United States. Tint Tools are known as 'Angle Tints' or 'Angle Tint Tools' in the US.

Wood engravers use Square Scorpers to create incisions on the surface of woodblocks. As woodblocks are inked with a roller, these incisions do not receive ink, and therefore show up white in the final print. Because the tip of a Scorper is flat, rather than pointed (as Spitstickers and Gravers are), scorpers of larger sizes are used to clear large areas of woodblocks (often round the edge of the design, or at the corners of a block) so that they will not print.This is a medium Square Scorper (#42). It has strait sides, which means that it will cut a thick, bold line of a constant width. Because the tip of the cutting face is completely flat, lines cut with this tool will begin and end abruptly, with a square edge. They will not swell or taper, like lines made with a spitsticker or a graver might; nor will they be rounded at the ends, like cuts made with a Round Scorper.This tool was made from high carbon tool steel in the United States by E.C. Lyons. It is supplied factory-sharp, but it has not been honed to a fine edge. Please note, engraving tools are known by different names in the U.K. and the United States. Square Scorpers are known as 'Flat Gravers' in the U.S.A.

Square Gravers are used by wood engravers and copper engravers. The face of the tool is square-shaped and will cut a line as deep as it is wide. This is a fine Square Graver (#1).Copper engravers use Square Gravers to create incisions on the surface of metal plates, which will hold ink during the printing process. The lines thus show up as black in the final print.

This tool was made from high carbon tool steel in the United States by E.C. Lyons. It is supplied factory-sharp, but it has not been honed to a fine edge.

These grey sheets / blocks of lino are especially made for "linocut" relief printmaking. They are 3.2mm thick, have a fabric backing, and are available in a range of sizes and packs. The surface of the lino is cut away using special lino cutters or a knife to form the basis of the lino print. The block is inked up with a roller (known as a brayer) and this creates a positive image when printed onto paper or fabric. The printing process can be done by hand or with a press. You can use water-based lino ink, oil-based lino ink, or a block printing medium mixed with paint.

The Lawrence Dabber is a traditional tool for inking an etching plate or applying grounds. The dabber is made of leather and has a wooden handle.

This Junior Double Rubber Etching Tool has a thick rubber coating for extra comfort and cushioning when cutting. The two tips are made of hard steel and have a hand polished finish.

This heavyweight roller is perfectly smooth allowing for a greater quantity of ink to be held and in doing so also means a greater amount of coverage.  A wet roller can simply be turned over and the handle doubles as a stand for cleaner working. Made from a hand-ground concentric EPDM rubber surface, which means it is flexible yet resistant to weathering. The EDPM rubber is of medium hardness and gives excellent pickup and deposit of all types of ink. This tool is the choice for the artisan printmaker with good recovery to indentation, and resistance to common printing chemicals. Perfect for printmaking, wood engraving and woodcut.

Lawrence Gum Arabic Powder is the pulverised version of lump gum arabic, the natural gum formed from the sap of the acacia tree. It is used in painting as a dilutant and medium for watercolour and gouache, increasing their strength, shine, and transparency. Printmakers will use the gum arabic in solution form for lithography processing and making sugarlift for etching.

Lawrence Gum Arabic Powder is easily mixed with distilled water, you can use tap water, but regional variations may alter the results slightly. Once mixed keep refrigerated.

Akua Intaglio Ink was originally formulated for intaglio printmaking, however this ink can also be applied with a brayer for relief printmaking, monotype, and collagraphs; and it will print from any plastic, wood, linoleum or metal plate. It is a soy based ink which is made with high quality lightfast pigments. The inks have a thick consistency with minimal water content and contain no toxic driers - this means a longer working time. The ink cleans up easily with a dry rag followed by soap and water. Inexpensive liquid dish detergent can be used. Never use toxic solvents. Prints can be re-soaked immediately after printing if handled carefully. Once the print is dry, Akua Intaglio is permanent. Ink will never skin or harden in the jar or the ink slab, meaning minimal ink is wasted. Wiping the plate with Akua Intaglio is easier than wiping oil-based ink, meaning you need to spend less time cleaning up.
