> 3 dayThis 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.

> 3 dayI bought this because I wanted to try a new craft and had been interesting in lino printing for a while, and this set is really great for that purpose! It has everything you need to make your first stamp! I do recommend buying extra lino, as the kit only comes with one, and if you are anythinb like me, you are going to want to make more ASAP!

Greater than one weekI bought this to make block prints for my Patreon members. I didnt choose the best paper for the job, so thats where most of my consistency issues are arising I think. I also purchased some extra rubber carving blocks and have only used those so far, so I cant comment on the blocks provided in the kit yet. Ill be trying out the linoleum soon when Ive decided on a design worthy of it. I noticed several reviewers complaining about the carving tool getting jammed - I have not had that issue. I think theyre loading their tips incorrectly. There are two metal pieces inside the housing that hold the tips by compressing the curved end in between them, you need to place the tip in between those two pieces and tighten it, and youre good to go. Its not the most comfy carving tool but it works fine and the built in storage is nice. My only complaint is mainly with the brayer. It doesnt roll super freely, being the snap in style theres a little resistance occasionally, so it sometimes will slide through the ink instead of rolling through it and sometimes it takes extra rolls to get the right consistency. The bench hook is metal and quite nice quality, though I wish it was white or tan instead of black. But it doesnt really matter because you can see the ink texture so black on black is not a real issue. All in all a great starter kit to build off of, certainly worth the $50. I say buy it, but be ready to buy more stuff if you enjoy the process. Im going to upgrade my brayer and get a baren and some fabric ink to round out my kit. When my carving tips get too dull Ill upgrade that tool, too. Happy printing!

> 3 dayEstá muy bueno, vino todo como fue prometido. Lo que sí hay que tener en cuenta es el peso, si es que van a tener que pagar flete, ya que es un poco pesado.
