Speedball Super Value Block Printing Starter Kit – Includes Ink, Brayer, Lino Handle and Cutters, Speedy-Carve

The block itself was soft, I think other reviews complaining it was too hard may have not stored it properly? I found it easy to carve into and definitely a great start for beginners. The only thing I would recommend is buying a tray to roll out the ink into as it does not come with one.

This package contains everything but the paper! It comes with three carving nibs and handle, roller, ink and carving block. Its very soft and easy to cut, only gripe is that my tool tips were dull or uneven. They might have been sharpened wrong in factory idk. Made it work cuz the block is really really soft - but you should snag a seperate pack of nibs or a whetstone to sharpen the ones it comes with if you intend to use them over and over.

Great product. If you don’t see the carving nibs plastic pouch when you open it, look for them in a compartment within the handle. Just Twist off the bottom of the handle.

Lo compre para la clase de arte de mi hija y es excelente.

Excellent all around. At first, I didnt realize the blades are inside the tool (screw off the larger en and voila!). Super easy to carve, a vast difference from old school linoleum, smooth as butter. Cant wait to start incorporating prints into my art.

The carving block is nice and soft, but the cutting tool blades came dull and rusty. I bought a strop because I saw experienced printers homing their blades every 10 cuts. I was able to carve the pink block this way, but when I tried it on gray lino, the blades bent where they meet the handle. This was even with warning/softening the block with my heart gun first. The kit is not a good value for money if the tools cant hold up to reuse.
