Letterpress magic!

I had the privilege of attending the snap and tumble Letterpress Workshop yesterday!

I got to learn all the basics about typesetting and movable type.
From admiring and choosing metal (or woodcut) letters (source):
To setting the letters in their form with wooden "furniture" and adjustable quoins:
To mixing and applying the ink:
To distributing the ink, and finally, pressing!
Here are some of the finished results:
Many thanks to Tanya for sharing offering this workshop and sharing her vast knowledge of the printing press!
