This 1/2 day course for beginners on an Adana 8×5 or Quarto flatbed printing press has been designed for those who are completely new to letterpress printing.  You will be introduced to the process of letterpress, shown how to compose type by hand using a composing stick and how to lock it up in the chase, creating a forme.

You will be introduced to the process of mixing your own ink and make ready, making sure that you get those perfect prints.

If you prefer not to hand compose your own type we have a selection of image blocks that you can use to print from, or you can use some wood type.  We will spend the afternoon printing postcard size prints, on a range of papers that you can take away with you.

You can upgrade to greetings cards if you so wish.

The price for our workshop is based on one person attending, but if you would like to bring a guest and work on the same project that will be fine, but there is a small additional payment.
