Inkstone Pressroom: Letterpress Notes from a Vilnius Courtyard

inkstonepressroom.com Visit website
Editorial interest 88/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A personal journal about running a small letterpress room in Vilnius, from flea-market type and ink mixing to damp paper and uneven floors.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-20 issue.
For
Letterpress hobbyists and printmaking beginners
Worth noticing
Five dated notes cover paper, ink, type, the room, and a friend's 200-card wedding job.

Field notes

The journal treats its archive like a type case: five filled compartments cover the room, type, ink, paper, and jobs, with older entries retained alongside revisions. Its material details include a half-tonne cast-iron press, a damp ground-floor room, ink mixed on a glass slab, and incomplete fonts sorted from flea-market crates. The author explicitly leaves guesses in the notes and frames the site as amateur documentation rather than advice or a commercial print service.
