Trying out the new-to-me press with my Avebury Cove block. I’ve been really impressed with how quickly I’ve been able to get satisfying results from day one. Very exciting times ahead

@willowhouseprints Have fun with it. Lovely thing to have
@julianbrasington There’s a part of me still can’t quite believe it is here, nor the circumstances surrounding its arrival. I thought I had weeks of adjustment and learning ahead too, to my surprise it just works, and works really well.
@willowhouseprints Brilliant. Really chuffed for you. Looking forward to seeing what comes off the press.
@willowhouseprints that’s a lovely Albion! I have been trying, so far unsuccessfully, to adjust my Schniedewend 20th Century Reliance to exert that kind of even platen pressure.
@mirijb2 Wow I had never even heard of the Reliance, looks a sturdy piece of kit. I am lucky so far with the Albion not to have needed much adjustment, but I am reading up so that when I need to I won’t make a mess of things
