SGHUO 12pcs 4"x6" Pink Rubber Carving Blocks Linoleum Block Stamp Making Kit

I'm new to block printing (had not made one since 6th grade- ages ago!) and decided to try it again as a way to de-stress. These blocks are perfect! Price point is perfect for the quantity, great size, great thickness, and they are easy to carve. They carve so easily that it's actually quite relaxing! They do not crumble when carving. Carbon paper works decently on them, too, for transferring designs. They take ink well and I have consistent results with the finished prints. I've used some of my blocks multiple times and still receive consistent results. This is my go-to item when I need new blocks and they have pretty much helped make block printing my newest hobby! I've added pictures of two of my finished projects to show how well they work. I'd give more stars if I had the option. Heads up- they are MUCH heavier than they look!

My first time making my own stamps so I don't have another product to compare it to. I've done two stamps so far using this product. It cuts easily, nice and soft. Price was awesome compared to other products.

Easy to carve and thick.

Perfect for art and kiddies workshop for adults as week

These work exactly as intended, I plan out my sheets carefully and often get several large stamps from each pad so no issue with size, the size also makes it possible to make postcard or greeting card style stamps if you use a whole sheet at once. Make sure to save scraps that seem big enough for carving, you never know when you might want a smaller detail stamp (I’ve made small hearts, clovers, balloons, flowers, etc). These are not the softest rubber stamps so it does take some force to cut through them, but that tends to be my preference for more accurate cutting, just make sure your blades are sharp and ready to go and you shouldn’t have any issues using this product. I’ve had these for a while and made a huge selection of stamps and I still have over half the stack so it definitely goes a long way for the price!

Quality rubber that provides thickness for ease of carving without worrying about your stamp having rough edges or inconsistency. All are the same thickness and density so there’s no need to change techniques because all your details allow for a quality appearance. They are a great size that allows for large and small stamps without running out of space for design. Flexible performance that always delivers each detail every time. You get a lot of product with endless possibilities for a great price. The quality is far above the price. Absolutely worth every penny. Get creative with these and enjoy the well spent time and money.

Super easy to to carve and printed great on both fabric and paper. Used oil-based inks, and the block took the ink like a champ and printed very evenly. The integrity of the lines held up great after 50+ pressings. I did hand print the block only, so I can't speak to how well it would work in an etching press. The surface of the block had a weird almost oily look to it, and I worried this would show up in the prints, but it was not an issue at all. For being called "poor quality", it seemed to be great quality to me! Only thing that made it tough to work with is that it's almost too easy to carve after working exclusively on the battleship gray stuff for so long. I did make some mistakes while carving, but a little PVA glue on the miscarved piece did the trick.

I bought this lino on a whim; I usually use the pink Speedball lino but this was cheap and I i was curious. I’m really really impressed with this lino and it’s become my go-to lately. It carves very easily and lets you get just as detailed as the SB Speedy Carve. It’s very good for beginners and excellent for those interested in making “stamps” as opposed to traditional block prints. What’s impressed me is how good it is at holding ink: when I’m testing a cut I’ll use a cheap watercolor marker (think generic Tombows) and this lino allows for wonderful prints. All pics I’ve included are using watercolor markers. It also cleans up easily with dish soap and can be mounted to wooden blocks using gorilla glue just fine. I’m in love! A big caveat, though: this is definitely more comparable to SB Speedy Carve, not to SB’s golden or Richeson battleship. It’s not as firm as the golden or battleship and, as a result, cannot be easily used for incredibly detailed work.
