And the condition of the wood type.

I think a normal person would have focused on one aspect of learning letterpress. I am feeling slightly overwhelmed as I explore magnesium cuts, metal type, polymer plates, and wood type. I’m making progress, but I need to keep better notes–not my strength.

I signed up for an online class in Adobe Illustrator today and learned a lot. But I have to remember that this will all take time and lots of practice.

In my spare time, I need to clean my new type cabinet. The mildew is making me sneeze. But doesn’t it look official?
