The EZ Etching Press is best used with a mounting board.

You can make these very cheaply yourself from using offcut MDF/Plywood or similar material.
This should available cheaply from your local DIY store or ebay, if a replacement is required.

Review by our other customer:

" ... As for actually using the exposure unit, it has been perfect for my use - I've been using it with Toyobo KM73 plates and having a fine experience with it - very impressive for such a small and compact unit.   All in all your service has been 10/10, very pleased over all, thank you!"   Joe Singleton


 

Schools and Education establishments are finding our Etching Presses invaluable.
Recently with two sold to a school in Cambridge and another four to another school in Stockport, as well  as several to University of the  Arts London and Salford Academy in Manchester. Other customers include Dundee Contemporary Arts in Scotland.

Our Etching Presses represent excellent value for money for budget conscious educational establishments. They are a great teaching aide for young or older children. Art is known to encourage students to relax and this helps them focus in other areas of education.
