Description

An etching press for printmaking. “An etching press is an essential tool for linoleum cut printmaking, as it enables students to achieve consistent and professional-quality prints. Currently, our students use wooden spoons as makeshift baren tools to press the ink from their inking plates onto paper. This process is not only labor-intensive but also results in inconsistent prints, which can be frustrating.”
