This traditional easy-cut art-print lino is specially made for carving. Available in a variety of sizes and also pre-mounted onto 18mm fibreboard blocks, giving extra rigidity allowing the user to achieve consistent, flat prints.

Slama Press Ball Graphic Press is a beautifully crafted hand printing press designed and manufactured in the Czech Republic. It was developed by Milos Slama whilst searching for a solution to the printing of his reduction linocuts in various sizes as well as something that was portable and affordable. Slama Press opens up the possibility of working across a wide variety of print formats and paper types.

Based on the ball bearing baren, a modern interpretation of a traditional Japanese tool but with added weight, it makes light work of burnishing a relief print. The freely rotating ball bearings create multiple pressure points evenly across the disc and the disc itself rotates around a central axis as you move across the paper. In addition, the 10mm ball bearings on the large Slama Press allow prints to be taken on heavier paper weights. The presses can take relief prints, drypoints, etchings and lithographs.

This is the small Slama Press with 6mm ball bearings and a rotating disc that is easy to handle. It is highly effective at burnishing prints on smoother lighter weight papers.

 Slama Press requires a tiny space to store so is suitable for the home studio. It comes with a lovely wooden stand to store safely.

Maintenance: Unscrew the lower bolt and take out the ball cage. Remove any impurities from the inside of the body of the press. After cleaning, screw the cage back on. The balls can be gently lubricated with oil by running the press on slightly oiled paper.

Pfeil B series lino and block cutters are excellent quality, with a wider range of V and U sweeps for larger mark making and faster clearing. Each tool is made from chrome vanadium steel, precisely forged, sharpened and polished for excellent results. Palm-handles are made of hardwood from ecologically managed Swiss forests.

Full bolster and square tang for optimal stability. Internal steel ferrule under bolster prevents handle from splitting. Tools are hardened to edge of bevel.

Lawrence 1.2mm Copper Plate for etching and engraving is highly polished on one side. The polished surface is protected by a plastic film.

The plate is unbacked and will require the application of an acid-resistant stop-out if etching. As well as etching, copper is also suited to non-etch intaglio techniques such as drypoint, engraving, and mezzotint due to its inherent hardness.

Please allow 2mm tolerance on sizes described.

Lawrence Student Quality Rollers offer an economical option, especially if you would still like to make use of the 25-30 shore durethane. Both the student rubber and the student durathene are 38mm in diameter, good for smaller projects or detail, and both are lighter in weight than the artist quality rollers.

With it's translucent emerald green appearance, durathene is ultra smooth and soft and is made from a new generation of elastomer. The student quality rubber rollers are harder than the artist quality, at 65-70 shore and perfect for beginners or student classes. Frames are made from wood and metal components and are assembled in the UK.

Cranfield Traditional Etching Inks are handcrafted, highly pigmented and include a vast range of colours giving the printmaker a wide choice whether they want to mix their own colours or not. Cranfield Traditional Etching Ink can be used for engraving, etching, drypoint, mezzotint and aquatint printmaking techniques.

Lawrence Carborundum Grit is available in grades from fine to coarse, with 60 being the coarsest and 220 the finest. Used for the creation of texture and deep areas of tone on collagraph plates of all types. Can be attached with waterproof PVA, mixed into acrylic mediums to paint onto the plate directly, or combined with other materials on the plate.

World renowned Swiss made wood carving tools from Pfeil. All tools are forged from steel that is manufactured especially for them, and this special steel guarantees excellent elasticity and the best edge retention with extreme hardness.

The alloyed steel blade has a square tang which sits in an innovative octangonal shaped handle, increasing stability and control. These tools have been sharpened and ground off so they are ready for use. Much consideration is given to the impact of manufacture on the environment. The handles are made from native wood and are treated with solvent free vegetable oil.

High-quality Swiss made carving tools suitable for either lino or wood cutting. Each tool is made from chrome vanadium steel, precisely forged, sharpened and polished for excellent results. Palm-handles are made of hardwood from ecologically managed Swiss forests. Full bolster and square tang for optimal stability. Internal steel ferrule under bolster prevents handle from splitting.

Very dark and opaque finish. For use with etching plates, this varnish is appropriate for backing the plate as well as stopping out (i. e concealing) areas of the plate where the etching process is not required.

E.C. Lyons Roulettes are designed to be used in intaglio printmaking processes. When the rotating drum at the head of the tool is pushed over the plate, it stipples the surface with dots or lines. These small impressions will hold ink and appear darker in the finished print.The density of lines or dots an engraving roulette will produce is expressed in its DPI rating. A higher DPI indicates the lines or dots made by a roulette as it passes over the face of the plate are closer together. This is a fine gauge line roulette of 100 DPI.

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.
