It had to be done! I recently overheard a conversation about how the more you pay for an etching press the better a print you get, that it needs to have a huge roller and be super heavy. Unusually for me I didn't butt in, but I have been thinking about it since and about how those who can't afford a traditional etching press are left out of the joy of intaglio printmaking with this belief. Don't get me wrong I love my traditional press but if we are just talking performance then......🤔 In this video I put my Etching press against the Sizzix Big Shot Pro. They have the same width roller. On each press I printed 4 different types of plate, this is a photopolymer solarplate "photo gravure" A5 in size printed using Akua ink on 300gm watercolour paper. I wasn’t surprised by the results. but many people will be. I've added details and photos of all four prints to my blog post Under Pressure https://sallyhirstcourses.com/under-p... It is 24 minutes long so make a cuppa! The differences? 1. The roller of the sizzix is fixed, but I show in the video how I slide paper underneath the plate to get the correct pressure. 2. The Etching press will outlive me and probably my daughter, but the sizzix will give up plenty of prints, and for those on a budget it could make the difference between printing or not, especially in schools. 3. The cost! NB. In the video I state the etching press is £1500, I have been asked by the manufacturer to rectify this, the price is £1090. The Sizzix was £229 so the difference in price is only £861 Regardless of my mistake the fact remains you could buy FOUR Sizzix Pro machines for the price of one etching press. Of course a traditional etching press will last a lifetime, but they are expensive if you are not sure you will continue with printmaking. A die cut machine will last you long enough to find out, then when you are ready you can invest in a traditional press. UPDATE Feb 2024 The manufacturer of the etching press complained about this video, but clearly didn't listen to it as I state clearly that a traditional etching press will last a lifetime, and is fully adjustable. The results are the same. I am not going to apologise for making this video, other than getting the price wrong. My intention was to highlight that very good prints can be made on die cut machines, prints of an equal quality. I have been using them for years now in schools and colleges since tearing my shoulder rotator cuff lifting the 'portable' press that you see in the video. But I feel strongly that too many people feel excluded from the joys of printmaking as they cannot afford a traditional press. I have taught hundreds of people worldwide and having got the bug they then go on to buy professional presses such as this, which incidently is one of a number on my list of recommendations. Far from disparaging traditional presses I am promoting them through encouraging printmaking! What the manufacturer should be doing is developing a lightweight, compact and portable press that would be an affordable alternative to a craft die machine. At the time of writing my Sizzix is going strong and I have sold the etching press.
