## Questions & Answers

**Q: Would letterpress wood block type work in this press?**
A: Hello. Speedball's Model B press does not have the right type of “bed” or “chase” to hold standard letterpress type blocks. It would be very difficult to create multiple prints in this fashion as potential movement of the blocks would be very hard to prevent during both the inking and printing processes. In addition, the press might not provide the correct pressure to create the desired and recognizable impression created from that of the letterpress technique. I hope this information helps. Please feel free to contact us directly should you have any further questions. Thank you.

**Q: Can a rubber stamp be mounted in this? We use it to stamp our shopping bags with our logo**
A: You mean to mount it on the top plate  The top plate is metal, and  I think (but I have never tried it) that would work, you could use hot melt glue or something better.  I use it for making cards, and I put the paper down first, then the block and then pull the top part down.  Works really well.

**Q: Can I use this with my photopolymer plates and still get a deboss print ?**
A: If you use a good grade of paper, you can create enough pressure to emboss or deboss if you put your polymer plate on a hard surface.  The Speedball block press usually has a thin soft surface and it will not emboss or deboss well, so a hard surface will allow for that.

**Q: Can you use this for plexiglass prints?**
A: I've never done that, however I often adhere my smaller carved linoleum pieced to plexi, and have used this press with them.  You can control the pressure somewhat, and the bottom is padded and has some give to it which protects the plexi. Hope that helps.
