Linocut Vs Woodcut Printing Materials Comparison

Comparing linocut to woodcut materials. Looking at lino, side grain wood blocks, end grain (box wood) wood blocks and Plywood for the use of printmaking (Relief printing, blockprinting and intaglio)

Thanks for the video. I also want to point out that these Pfeil tools are not the right tools to use with the end grain wood block, and hence the difficulties. You will need engraving tools for that (eg. spitsticker, scorper, graver). I haven't tried it myself as the materials are so expensive. But that is what I have gathered from research. It is very useful to see you try it with the Pfeil tools as I have always been wondering if my Pfeil tools would work for wood engraving (not woodcut). So the answer is: probably not!

Useful video. Hopefully won't be another two years till the next one :-)

Seem like a really interesting video though a shame the camera seems to be badly positioned, and only showing half of the content! Thanks for making the video anyway. Better luck next time!
