  • Today a dry point print. In this video I use a mini USB cordless grinder tool to create a drypoint plate on a Perspex sheet. I am, of course, also using a drypoint needle for some finer detail. What's really cool about this, is that the ground areas of my printing plate came out with some lovely mid-tones. I also use sandpaper to add some other tones and textures to the final print.
    Ink: Black Intaglio
    Paper: Somerset 300g
    Press: Polymetaal HS-35 Tabletop Etching Press
    Grinder: Ginour Cordless mini Grinder
    Drypoint printing is a traditional printmaking technique that creates an image by pressing a metal or etching needle directly onto the surface of an intaglio plate. The process can be traced back to the early 16th century and was developed as a way for artists to create prints without using expensive copper plates, which were more commonly used in engraving.
    In this blog post, I will introduce you to dry point printing and give you some information on how it works.

    ...Wow! How did I miss this one!!! I use my dremel rotary multitool for almost everything... and I've got about 10 of them. 2 desktop dremels with a cord attachment and then all the portable ones. I've got a magnetic rack to attach all those little bit heads to. So wonderful to see someone else using one. I've got exactly that one as well; with the same box - I found it on Aliexpress.

    That happened to orions belt from yesterday? I thought it was a twisted vetical feather thin belt with a village bend on it to cover the girls with the baby so there could be a slip and a butterfly could be released? 😂

    That came out really great! Thanks for showing! Do you have any experience how many times you can print using acrylic? Is it comparable to copper/zinc?

    This produces a great result and has inspired me to buy the same tool. I’m about to start experimenting but can I ask - do you find there are particular attachments you use more than others to create effects?

      Thank you, glad you found the video useful. I probably use the pointy attachment the most

    drypoint is one of my favorite techniques, nice to see the results from using the cordless grinder.

    ...I use it not only for engraving, but also I found a way to use it for relief prints, i.e. the primer method to oil cloths. None of my combination relief/dry points with metal primer have worn out yet and I used the dremel to make them all.

    Also, I don't think I said this about the Cricut plotter (because I only discovered it a few days ago). The plotter engraves into surfaces and I sent through a really complex design with a piece of mylar-like plastic. The engraving is just incredible and I almost don't want to make a print of it I love it so much.

      Sometimes the plate can look better than a print 😁

      I tried my Zing cutter for that years ago, but I found the burrs gave too soft a line when printed. Maybe the Cricut makes crisper lines.
