for voiced over videos, where i explain my process
thank you!
Already a few comments about why i didn't use a cnc?!?!?: in life we have choices and each day we can do what ever we want to create any art we want. thats why. if i used CNC the first comments would be " my grand mother could do, that lets see you do it with out electricity and then i ll be impressed" .. it took 3-4 hours by hand. thank you
I draw out signage and lettering by hand all the time! It keeps my skills sharp. Diresta Army Worldwide!!! 👊🏼❤️👊🏼❤️👊🏼
How can we get one of the prints? I actually would prefer the misspelled one lol. It adds character.
You've changed.... back.... haha. Great project, Jimmy Small Hands! Who cares what the trolls say?!
Keep doing what you do, however you want to do it.
Haters gonna hate. They just love being a contrarian. Ignoramuses.
Everybody think the CNC is the answer to all the world's problems.
I love that you're all about the process. You're rad.
The level of detail you put in every one of your projects never fails to impress. Good work Jimmy!
Like the little push stick hands along with the project and outcome.Thanks.
I love how you get an idea and you have the ability to make it a reality - love your work as always!
I love the little hands! They remind me of little spike paws
I can watch the operation of this machine all day. its truly elegant.
What can't you do? This is why I love to watch you at work. It inspires me to dabble in every medium that catches my interest. Love ya Jimmy!!!!
Wow that looks crisp!
Wintergatan my first print purchase ever thank you Martin!
human "mistakes" are what gives it character. Anyone ever checked out what a mis-struck penny goes for? First edition books with misspellings are priceless. Fantactic work Jimmy!
Holy cow, that's a maxed out press! I LOVE it!
Fantastic! Love it! I like the use of the tablesaw for the cuts between the words - I wouldn't have thought of that! :)
It's really smart to put some of the words upside down - it forces the viewer to slow down and really look at each word in turn. Such a great lesson in design! Thank you.
Lory Henning's Project Happy Life I think he did that by accident
Yeah - and a coupla hidden typos make searching for them more interesting, as well! ;)
The tiny hands always make me giggle. Cool build & combination of different crafts.
The method you used in this video was very refreshing. Really liked it!
Thanks
Those little hands at the end. I just about died laughing. Now I want a printing press!
ExcelsiorPress.org - I repair & restore old printing presses - and then pass them on to good homes... C'mon down to my shop in rural NJ and I'll teach you more than you want to know! ;)
How can I binge watch Jimmy Diresta if I've already binge watch all of Jimmy Diresta? Love your work! Want me a ice pick and a poster!
your little doll-hand push sticks are continuously giving me fits!
For those talking about spelling errors need I point out that nowhere on the print does it say 'Orthographer'. Another great video Jimmy! Thanks for reminding us that you can't MAKE without the occasional MistAKE!
I'll be honest, I was 100% sure that this would be another CNC video but you nicely surprised me. Great job!!
You're like a modern version of the Primitive Technology guy. Thanks for the videos, this is badass.
Jimmy just watched this with my 5 year old daughter. She told me to tell you good job carving.
Very cool. I wouldn’t have complained about the CNC, but I’m very impressed with how clean your work was doing it by hand.
Awesome. I don't have a CNC and I like wood carving printing blocks back from school. I think I'll try it again.
Keep on kicking! Love this old machine.
OMG! In NY..the T is silent... hence, Crafstman! :) That art shot up in value! And Innovator (think tore as in paper). Very excellent work!
One thing the vid doesn't show is the time and patience it no doubt took to carve out those letters! Amazing work!! Those little hands clapping at the end just had me laughing SO much!! :-D
Well done Jimmy. Impressed at the patients and skill required to not use a CNBC. Thanks for the vid.
Classic Diresta...Diet Diresta...Cherry Diresta...love the Diresta! Great video, and I appreciate that you followed your vision and did it your way...inspiring!
Just think. A similar method to this was used in order to make all typeface stacks for the printing press machine created hundreds of years ago. More modern renditions of these black stacks are actually featured in the new movie The Post (which was pretty good) Doing this with a CNC machine could very well open up a block hole and kill us all. Handmade or never made! Good choice jimmy! It adds to the character of the chosen font and IMO just makes the piece mean more overall. I get the same feeling when I hand pull screen prints or etch a zinc plate for print making. It just feels better when your hands are involved! Thumbs up Jimmy!
Wow, running it through the table saw to create the straight edges on the typeface is such a good idea. Well done! I gotta try that
You should try using "Ulmia" spring clamps for clamping miter joints together. I have used them for many years and they make the most intricate miter clamping jobs very easy. They come in a variety of sizes from the larger ones that require their special pliers to use and smaller ones that clamp with hand power. They do require a small dimple to be filled on each leg of the miter but you have to sand the edges to remove saw blade or clamp marks anyway. Just Google Ulmia sprin g clamps to see what they look like.
I would have never caught the misspelled words in my lifetime. Nice stuff.
This entire process, a beautiful lost art and people managed to find THAT tiny TINY minute detail to pick apart and complain about. My lord what has this world come to?
noble prize for keep nostalgie alive.
this is awesome. i adore you.
This is awesome, love the print and very jealous of that 11x15! Frame looks great also!
The tiny shop hands are the greatest thing since Spike's cat paws
This, people, is the work of a true crafstman. :) Great stuff as always, Jimmy!
Facts
I agree.
Brilliant, a testament to your patience......
Very excellent work!
Sweet wood cut! Thanks for Sharing Jimmy
I'm in awe that you hand cut those letters and so perfectly. Your an amazing man Jimmy Diresta.
Project idea for you.. hand made drying rack! :) Awesome to see the press in use!
Some mad skills free handing those miter joint splines on the table saw!
Another great project. Love seeing those old presses at work and look forward to more printing related projects. I would have liked to have seen a bit more about the design portion.
JD I think you were born about 200 years too late! Thanks for another Great Video Brother! Have A Super Week!.....Gus
Hi Jimmy, I'm from Brazil. big fan of your channel for years, I remember when you bought this printing machine. I love old machines. It's very cool to see her working.
That "whoo baby" at 2:59 is hilarious. I need that as a text alert for my phone. The tiny hands clapping at 9:06 capped it off. Love the frame and it seems like a project I can tackle.
Thanks for the trip back to 1960 and 61 High School Print Shop.
You might want some drying shelves now ! awesome work. made me want to try on my own !
Such a treat to get as much content as this in one video! Thanks as always and looking forward to Maker Central!
I didn’t realize you could multi-strike on a letterpress without registration errors. Nice work. Good use of the old wood.
I own and use a vintage Griffin Etching press and always try to take the long road in making woodcuts. So gratifying to see you tackle the lettering by hand. If you ever design a simple and effective print drying rack I would love to see a videos on the build... I’ve been been drying editions for years in varying ways as the cost of a “real” drying rack throws me off. Anyway, I (as always) appreciate the work you’re doing!
Good morning Jimmy I wish you a blessed day brother.. and I wish all Jimmy diresta fans a blessed day as well.
Basking Chicago....You as well Brother! Have A Super Week!.....Gus
Dude, that Guillotine is so nice! We have a digitally controlled at my Univ., but dang, your machine is lovely. So satisfying too to watch the paper just get nicely evened up. And also - props to you on the cutout. So tedious, but turned out very nicely. Sweet video!
Hello,
I am a former typographer and I worked on this kind of press.
I liked the cutter.
Bruno
I'm *still* a typographer/printer and I use a press like that nearly every day! - see videos at nodeadlines...
I love that frame idea. We have some lumber from the barn at the old family farm - cannot wait to make a frame from there using this technique.
I love this channel so much its so soothing and addictive I always watch a video before I go to bed it helps me sleep ❤️
Nice to see older machines at work. The hands r cool 👐
This is awesome! It is a pure pleasure to watch U making this by hand, instead using a CNC.
Cheers from Poland!
This is awesome. how satisfying that must have been!
Really cool to see you making the plate, the prints and the frame...maybe the next project can be a simple modular drying rack for the prints 😉
Can't please them all Bro...It's your art and you're the Artist so do it the way you feel like... Hell of a job!
You should get a Noble prize for Patience 👍
For all the trolling, I didn't see any comments about you putting the acrylic in backwards (or pretending to).
Love you Jimmy, keep keeping it honest, and awesome.
A lot of steady hand work cutting them letters out 👍👍👍
9:04 the tiny hands are adorable as heck
I prefer the term Master...Thanks for everything Jimmy
Nicely done Jimmy! 👍👊
I think this needs to be a T Shirt!!!!
Great video - the “woos” made me laugh!
I love the little hands push sticks.
Reaaaaaally like the way you made the frame. This'll really help me make frames faster in the future. Thanks Jimmy!
Glad to see the video jimmydiersta
There's a spell check feature in all Adobe software. So you know. I believe it's under the edit button at the top. I'm glad you hand carved it. It has grit now.
That hand work was Impressive.
I just love those 'creepy' push sticks. Reminds me of that one particular scene in the Dead Pool movie.
I like how you started the project using a modern printer.
Thankyou Jimmy, i was such a big fan of the older things you built in the city, i felt , hay i might really be abel to do that too. Its great that you got the cash and the space to Produce nice stuff, but its become more like watchin Life of the Rich and Talanted.. Just Seams like all the really Talanted Makers have gone mainly hitec, miss the real Hand Makin projects alot....
Looks like we just might see a drying rack project video soon. Awesome work jimmy!

I like this design. The cool thing is you can do it with something simple like a printout from your computer and and a chisel, or you could have used a high tech solution like a CNC. Both ways would be just as valid. I kind of like the juxtaposition of the CNC and and old school printing press, but chiseling out the template is likely more historically accurate to the printing press. It's always cool to see the creativity that you use to make take advantage of the tools you have at your disposal. It makes me try and maximize the potential of the amazing tools I have available to me.
Awesome job Jimmy. Love the look of this print. So cool to know it can be done by hand relatively easily. Thank you for your continued sharing!!!
Love how regular these great videos are coming
Way cool!....I LOVE THAT IT'S HANDMADE!!!!
This is great! I guess you sand down the surface a little bit after first couple prints and then printing going easier) Never think how good hand carved wood block will work on this type of print press, turn out better then i expected. Great work as always!
Thats a lot of carving! I got anxious just looking at it.
Gary Truesdale same! Seeing how much I would have to do would get overwhelming
Yeah. Me, too. I prefer to set hand type.... But that's not quite so artistic - although does make correcting typos quite easy... ;)
People, the misspellings are not a mistake. He will be happy to sell you two sets, the original and the correct one.
Ура Джимми вернулся !!!
I heard in the background at the printing press a familiar saying ‘C’mon Bobby!’ I hope your brother is doing well on his recovery.
Diresta you're an artist.
better than an artritis
Diresta? More like Da-besta
Hey look Jimmy reinvented the alphabet that damn Jimmy so smart !
The little hands at the end are so much fun lol
That machine is so cool.
The baby hands get me every single time
Cheers Jimmy! Lovely stuff as always!
I laugh every time I see the tiny hands.
Same here. Love 'em.
Funny, yet..........oddly sinister in a way.
loved the voices in fast forward hahaha great result!
Great build and combination of skills.
hi jimmy I'm from Brazil and I'm your very much your fan
Great video Jimmy, as usual. Boy your going to have the safety police on ya, ohhh where are the guards??? lol I use my Streamlight flash light like you do, a piece of 3/8" or 1/2" clear poly tubing about an inch long over the switch end will make life much easier. thanks so much for posting.
