Review: Having said that the ink in the kit is great for stamping envelopes - Very versatile kit, has everything you need to make your personal stamps. I am impressed with the variation and end product. The ink, if you want a permanent non-bleeding finish as I do I would go for another type than in the kit. The ink in the kit will run if you want to apply a liquid finish to a project. Having said that the ink in the kit is great for stamping envelopes, addresses or marking books or general usage of the kind.
Review: Excellent kit and fun, but needs a few more lower case "e" - This is like the traditional "John Bull Printing Outfit" I had as a child. It works. The type is about 4mm high for lower case, so quite big. They provide a good number of yellow devices to insert the type into, the largest has 5 lines of type. But be warned, if you are writing in English, there are only 5 lower case "e". It is surprising how many you need! They also provide some "é" and other accented "e" characters, so I managed to create the words I needed by cutting the accent off the é with a scalpel. If you are going to be composing a lot of words you might want to consider ordering two kits, to get the letters you need. They include a pair of tweezers to grip the type, and a black ink stamp pad. Of course it is very fiddly to compose the rubber type letters in the yellow type holders, but that's part of the fun. I'm pleased with my purchase and have used it for titling my artwork.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: If I printed / impressed into clay (for gift tags) would the letters stay in the holders?**
A: Hi, its hard to say. They are a snug press fit into the rails. I use them to cast numbers into wet plaster and then when hard they stay behind in the cast and I have to prise them out. Also after multiple use I found the rubber blocks become more hard and get looser in the frames. My guess would be that they would come away in the wet clay. You could glue them in with impact adhesive or hot glue gun, and clean off after each time. When I am next in the workshop I will try an unused frame & some unused characters and try it in modelling clay... if you can wait for an answer later this week.

**Q: How are people preventing the letters from getting mixed up after each use? Surely not in the racks supplied?**
A: Just bung them in a small freezer bag as complete words. Chances are that you will want to repeat these words again subject to the use that you are using them. When they are bagged just a small drop of white spirit will clean them off to make them less messy to re-use.

**Q: Could you print text on a t-shirt with this kit?**
A: Not. With the current ink, you need to buy permanent ink but the letters aren't big enough for a t shirt.

**Q: Hello. May I ask how tricky/award it is to position letters, & if you have any pictures of sample stamps to illustrate how the stamps look? Thanks**
A: No option to up load photos but i have fat fingers and i managed but the tweezers are handy to use too although you can use your own tweezers if you have any and want something slimmer to use :)

*by S***M on 22 August 2020*

What a great bit of kit, it can be fiddly but worth it. You get quite a lot of upper and lower case letters. The letter mounts hold the letters great. I got this to use on fabric, but used a different ink. Overall a neat kit.
