I usually lock up inside the chase, but sometimes you have to think outside the box... Border for an A3 sheet. #letterpress #imposition #border #lockup instagr.am/p/CsYgFXhoRg4/

Lovely wonky Latin wood letter fonts I acquired years ago. I assumed they were hand cut, but there are no cutter marks, so I'm puzzled why they are so irregular. No maker's name. #letterpress #woodletters instagr.am/p/Cr6oWGJrIEx/
Experience is no defence: I learnt long ago how to avoid setoff, but distracted by trying to get a large area of text right (unsuccessfully), I missed an over-inked over-impressed headline... doh! 🤦♂️ At least that should encourage any beginners lacking… instagr.am/p/Cr6N9WaNccC/

Printing something bigger than your press is intended to do is a challenge. Some presses let the paper overhang, most don't. Printing on folded sheets (if a crease is OK) is one answer, but needs careful register, inking, and... Oops! 😬 #letterpress… instagr.am/p/CqLOctSIcpx/
Not often I need to dig out the Honeycomb base to print a stereo. This one (of three) has been found by the family of the farmer advertising in 1915, and they wanted prints. These are typical of stereotypes, an advert copied so the stereos could be sent … instagr.am/p/CoKS7bGszSE/
Second Soup Lunch poster: pic from wood letter and border (yellow a large O printed twice, red a piece of floor vinyl floor tile). Not surprised I missed the inverted H, outside issues causing lack of focus, but at least with such a casual style, it's no… instagr.am/p/Cn7We6rL_69/
A Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year to everyone. This year's card on an offcut doesn't fit an Instagram photo shape, so have a chorus of them. instagr.am/p/CmlUjwpodWg/
Another school project done, great work from Burrelton Primary class working on a topic of WWII. Always a joy to do these. Time doesn't permit the children to do it all, otherwise I'm sure they would. #letterpress #burrelton #primaryschoolproject #bookm… instagr.am/p/ClV09DgsaHA/
The Guardian designer had fun today with this bit. Very subtle! 🤣 #typewriter #typography #theguardian instagr.am/p/ClT6mJ9LCAQ/
This does not bode well. I fear trying to register two colours on this offcut may prove impossible.🙄 At 36" it's too long to register the right way, crosswise. 🤣 Always game for a challenge... #letterpress #register #offcuts instagr.am/p/Ck8QzyXIwxW/
Hm, should I complain to @Bandq_uk about gender discrimination, as their instruction leaflet seems to suggest only a man is suitable to fit this light fitting? Or that the instructions were inside the fitting, and included how to open it to get at them? … instagr.am/p/CkjAJu1rGrB/
Just been given a stack of interesting papers from now-defunct local paper mills, so had to make room for them. So this lot of mostly boring plain white litho papers will probably be going to the local school. Not practical to send to anyone, but if you'… instagr.am/p/CjfxOgvMSXL/

White printed letterpress is always tricky, and I should have known better than use it on this light paper, but I wanted a white bowl. No joy, so it has to be blue instead. I did try ploys like silver underneath, but it was doomed. Run of 10 made foil b… instagr.am/p/Ci2L2uKsyy6/
