I'm having a bit of a problem with my Heidelberg letterpress. I broke a few parts on it & need to find a dealer to get new ones. Anyone know a dealer in the Midwest? Thanks.
Oh, and by the way, Offset printing is done with a printing press, using plates to place an image to a blanket, which then "offsets" it to paper. Letterpress uses a reverse image to print directly to paper, or using letters in a chase, hence the name "letterpress".
Great video; excellent quality and interesting. I would only point out that the machine is called a printing press, not a letterpress. Letterpress is a printing process like offset printing, intaglio printing, etc. Also, the ink "tray" is called the ink fountain.
bad ass! i remember doing this back in high school.
