8pcs rubber carving block

Had lots of fun with this. It's easy to carve and prints well. Durable.

Exactly what I needed them to be as someone beginning to explore lino art and stamp making. Good value for the price.

Quality rubber that provides thickness for ease of carving without worrying about your stamp having rough edges or inconsistency. All are the same thickness and density so there’s no need to change techniques because all your details allow for a quality appearance. They are a great size that allows for large and small stamps without running out of space for design. Flexible performance that always delivers each detail every time. You get a lot of product with endless possibilities for a great price. The quality is far above the price. Absolutely worth every penny. Get creative with these and enjoy the well spent time and money.

I bought Speedball's Speedy Carve first and loved it but couldn't justify the cost if I needed a large quantity. Tested this out and it's very similar. It doesn't crumble, it's very soft and easy on your hands. Great for making small stamps. Easy to draw your design on with pencil. I draw and erase right on the material without any issues. It might be slightly softer than Speedy Carve which seems to be smoother and a bit firmer. I find it difficult to get clean margins when I'm carving text with this material but it's still great to work with. I prefer this material to linoleum.

I still have a few pieces left and loved the quality of this! I'm getting back into linocut and stamp making and will be using this for a stamp for my business. Definitely a good density and quality!

Super easy to to carve and printed great on both fabric and paper. Used oil-based inks, and the block took the ink like a champ and printed very evenly. The integrity of the lines held up great after 50+ pressings. I did hand print the block only, so I can't speak to how well it would work in an etching press. The surface of the block had a weird almost oily look to it, and I worried this would show up in the prints, but it was not an issue at all. For being called "poor quality", it seemed to be great quality to me! Only thing that made it tough to work with is that it's almost too easy to carve after working exclusively on the battleship gray stuff for so long. I did make some mistakes while carving, but a little PVA glue on the miscarved piece did the trick.

I bought this lino on a whim; I usually use the pink Speedball lino but this was cheap and I i was curious. I’m really really impressed with this lino and it’s become my go-to lately. It carves very easily and lets you get just as detailed as the SB Speedy Carve. It’s very good for beginners and excellent for those interested in making “stamps” as opposed to traditional block prints. What’s impressed me is how good it is at holding ink: when I’m testing a cut I’ll use a cheap watercolor marker (think generic Tombows) and this lino allows for wonderful prints. All pics I’ve included are using watercolor markers. It also cleans up easily with dish soap and can be mounted to wooden blocks using gorilla glue just fine. I’m in love! A big caveat, though: this is definitely more comparable to SB Speedy Carve, not to SB’s golden or Richeson battleship. It’s not as firm as the golden or battleship and, as a result, cannot be easily used for incredibly detailed work.

Ordered these after using a more expensive name brand product. These got the job done, and the green core is an added bonus. The green core provides a point of reference on how deep you have cut, this I found to be very helpful when carving. Not sure if I would carve on the opposite side of a carved piece, although it could be possible- I do not think that weight distribution would allow for a clean printing. But potentially, you could carve a double- sided stamp. Lots of fun to get the creative juices flowing. Block printing is a new hobby of mine, and I will most likely order these again. Its also important to note the size, these are ver easy to cut to size! Very nice.

Easy to carve, and easy to draw on for stencil

Perfect and just as described

Good quality

A bit softer than normal lino blocks I've bought before but otherwise fine
