I am giving away this collection of lino printmaking tools for free to whoever wants it to make some tiki art! I only ask that you pay me shipping. These belonged to my dad - he took up printmaking after he retired. I was just going through a box of his old stuff today and put this lot together... Let me know if you are interested....

Knowing nothing about the process, I would have been a total dork with this equipment in hand. That's not to say that I'm not a dork anyhow though! http://www.samgambino.com

Its hard when a parent dius, to know what to do with all the stuff. You want to keep it all, buy you can't. My mom is moving from the house I grew up in, so therefore a lot of things are coming up to light that we have to deal with - this box was one of them! there was some fun stuff in it I kept for myself though. I can't wait to see what fourcrows does with it!
