Ask an Expert - Forum > Letterpress printing project for the first time

Hello All!

I hope you are having a lovely winter afternoon! I am currently working on trying to plan a letterpress project to help my mother out with her personal business! I need guidance on what products work best like what pressing tools work best? And do mediums like corkskin, etc need different pressing tools?

I hope to hear back! And appreciate any feedback you can give!

Hello,

It sounds like you should consult a letterpress printer, someone local you can go and observe the different type of equipment and their capabilities and limitations.
Different printers often have different presses that create different effects.
Experienced printers will be familiar with a variety of medium/substrates and can help you through the process.
Best of luck in your project!
