Our new etching press has arrived at last! It is an American French Tool Company press made by Andre Eugene Beaudoin and the bed measures a huge 82 x 180cm. Together with our new, larger aquatint box our etching facilities are now on a par with the best and we hope will attract new artists to the studio as well as enabling keyholders and open access users to work on a grand new scale.
