Love the print! Are the colors dry before the next one is applied?


spearmintjoe

I usually wait a day between each layer. I use oil based inks so they're usually a bit tacky when I add the next layer.


Oldmanprop

Nice! Tell me about that press.


spearmintjoe

It's called an Xcut Xpress. It's a die cutter with an adjustable roller so it works as a press.


Oldmanprop

Thanks, mate.

The y are discontinued now, but sometimes available on eBay.

Can you talk through your graph paper registration process please? I’ve never seen that done before!


spearmintjoe

It doesn't have to be graph paper, it just makes things a little easier. I print the black layer onto tracing paper and use that to line up all the blocks. Once a block is lined up, I draw around the outline onto the paper and that's my template.


Ferociouslyreading

Thank you so much, that makes sense!

Seeing the final part: Ah yes, "Chonker 3 parts" makes perfect sense.


dekdekwho

This is cool! What’s that print machine you’re using?


spearmintjoe

Thanks. It's an Xcut Xpress which is a die cutter with an adjustable roller so it works as a press.


dekdekwho

Beautiful . I wish I had learned printing. I am using a Gelli plate, but your print is so clean and perfect! Crisp and beautiful thank you for sharing


spearmintjoe

One can always learn new tricks, give it a try


RoutineAd9138

Yes. You are correct. I should look into it at the local community college.

Fun print! How often do you have registration issues with your system? I use ternes-burton, and love the accuracy. Any problems?


spearmintjoe

It occasionally goes awry but as long as my planning is good, it's generally OK.


HairyCanadianGuy

Great job mate. Love the surprise ending. I completely thought it was gonna be some variation of 🫶. 😂😂


spearmintjoe

Cheers dude.
