Rolfes Table Top Etching & Relief Printing Press

The Rolfes Table Top Etching Press is a versatile printmaking press designed for students, educators, hobbyists and professional artists seeking a reliable compact press for a wide range of printmaking techniques.

Constructed entirely from heavy-duty steel for strength and durability, the press features a smooth-operating 360° crank handle and adjustable upper and lower rollers that allow pressure settings to be customised for different printing materials and techniques. The robust design provides consistent pressure across the printing surface, helping artists achieve clean, detailed and repeatable print results.

The large metal bed plate accommodates a variety of projects including etching, collagraphy, embossing, relief printing, unmounted linoleum printing, woodblock printing, monoprinting and paper lithography. Despite its sturdy construction, the compact tabletop format makes it ideal for classrooms, studios, workshops and home printmaking environments.

Each press includes a felt blanket to help distribute pressure evenly during printing and improve print quality.
