Speedball Deluxe Block Printing Kit - Includes Inks, Brayer, Bench Hook, Lino Handle and Cutters, Speedy-Carve Block, Mounted Linoleum Block

Everything in this set is great to start with except the carving set is a pain to work with. The interchangeable blades get stuck in the chuck. I have one in right now that I can not remove. I would suggest buying a multi piece carving set and then buying the rest of the pieces from this set indicidyally (excluding this carving set). Also the blocks are great to practice on, but are really too small for any kind of real print making.

The inks that come in this kit are dreadful. I wouldnt bother getting it. better ink might cost more but its better than wasting money on this junk.

Not a bad starter set, I didnt have my original expectations to high to begin with, so that helped. the lino cut tools are kind of low quality, Ill see how they do after sharpening. Good set to learn techniques and practice before you get to the professional stuff.

This kit has everything a beginner needs to start block printing. The blades are sharp but a little tricky to change out.

The blocks in the kit are small, but this had everything I need to make my first print. I would recommend this for students to use.

I decided I wanted to try ink block printing, and this came up when I searched for a kit. Has everything you need to give it a try. I enjoyed it so much, I quickly acquired more surfaces to carve. This is a great option for an intro to block printing.

Overall i think it is a very good buy when youre looking for a quick hassle-free way to try block printing IF the cutting tool worked properly. I do not know if all the Lino cutters do not work or mine is just a defective one but it takes like ten minutes to change the blades (it is constantly jammed). I bought one previouslyseparately from the same company (of a green color) and it takes 10 seconds to change the blades. Since I already have a cutting tool, it is only a minor inconvenience for me (i put in the cutting blade I use most and switch out on my other one) but it can be a huge problem for other people who do not have another linocutter. On a positive note, the bench hook, rubber brayer, water-soluble inks and lino material work great and Im happy to have tried them out.

Great for beginners. My only complain is that after the first time I used them, the next day the tips were completely rusted.

great starter kit. the blade holder is a bit finicky, but cant be beat for the price. also, the roller and plate wash clean very easily and can be used with paints not included in the kit

This was the first time I have ever tried block printing. This was a great kit to get me started. The blades cut well and stored easily in the handle. I have to work on my technique a little bit, but I think this was a good value for all the stuff that you get.
