Speedball Super Value Block Printing Starter Kit

I bought this together with Essdee SoftCut Printmaking and Carving Blocks (200 x 150 x 3.0 mm Pack of 2) to make carving a bit easier. The tools are great quality and you can get a lot out of the little 37ml of ink supplied! Changing the cutters can get a bit fiddly, but overall, I'm really happy with this starter pack.

This is an excellent starter kit. Just need to realise that it is water based, not oil. Simple basic instructions and everything you need to start printing, except the paper. I would suggest buying those blank greetings cards and making your own designs for Christmas or something.

This is a must for any would be printer. Easy to use, easy to clean and a must for your art kit.

Nice little kit. As the other reviewers said, the styrofoam inking tray lets it down a bit, but you get a very posh piece of wood-backed, artist grade lino, a lovely quality roller, a sturdy cutter and a decent-sized tube of ink. I would suggest also buying a couple of pieces of cheap lino to go with it, if this is your first try at linocutting.

Great kit to start any newcomer off.

Great item

Good

£75 seems a crazy amount for what you get with this. I’m sure if you buy items separately it would be much much cheaper

Als Geschenk gekauft - voll enttäuschend! Wenn man auf die geschlossenen Farbtuben leicht drauf drückt, (beim Herausnehmen aus der Verpackung) quillt oben aus der Pfalz die Farbe heraus. Das ist gleichbedeutend mit: kannst du wegwerfen. Für 90 € erwarte ich einfach etwas Besseres. Das geht zurück.

This is a great kit! This was my first time doing linocut printmaking and now if my favorite! It was so easy to carve I was surprised on how quick it was. The ink is water soluble so it would probably not hold up on fabric but since it’s not an oil based ink it makes clean up a breeze. I’m an avid printmaker when it comes to other forms of printmaking and this is the best Brayer I’ve ever used. There is only one piece of linoleum but you can easily order more of just the linoleum. Definitely worth the money.

Ontem quando recebi fiquei confusa na montagem, e pensei que estava com defeito E solicitei a devolução, mas consegui entender e está ok . Não quero devolver, vou ficar com o kit .

Zu dem Produkt selber kann ich noch nicht wirklich etwas sagen, aber die Verpackung die ich erhalten habe ist defekt und sieht aus, als wäre sie bereits einmal gewaltsam geöffnet worden! Immerhin ist es vollständig.

An amazing all encompasing kit for someone looking to start print making at home and with a few tools. The paints are easy to use, as well as all the tools included. Maybe there are slightly better blocks to carve on, but someone can move to different ones, once the get the grip using this kit. You can still make amazing works with this little kit and can be the starting point for any beginners before they decide to invest in pricier tools/material, to see if this hobby fits them
