Setting the Pressure:

It is simple and quick to set the pressure for any thickness of plate, from thin etchings and dry-point plates to thick woodblocks, and anything in-between. We can deliver and set up for you, and also show you how to make plates and print from them. You can come to our printmaking Gallery/workshop and print some of your own plates (or ours if you don’t have any) to get the feel of our range of presses.

Perfect Press Guide:

What makes a printing press great? What should you look out for? And do you know what you need from your potential supplier?

In this guide, we’ve collated our top Seven Questions to Ask Your Printing Press Provider, to ensure you’re perfectly equipped with a product that’s suited to what you need.
