Product Description

The Speedball Speedy-Carve Block Printing Carving Block is made from revolutionary material that combines the ease of carving of other soft substrates and the fine detail of creating with traditional linoleum blocks.  The pink block is latex free and measures 9 x 11-3/4 inches (1/4 inch thick surface).  It is very beginner friendly and a popular choice to use in school and at home.  The super soft, eraser-like texture of the block allows for young students to create printing blocks safely.  Expert printers love using the Speedy-Carve Block as well.  Effortlessly create your own custom stamps or printing blocks in school or at home.  Designs can be simple or detailed, this carving block works well with any style.  This carving block accepts transfers from laser printers, inkjet printers, clip art and newspapers.  For use with water-soluble and oil-based block printing inks.  Carving these blocks is a breeze and the material will not crack, crumble or break. We highly recommend using a bench hook to hold the block securely in place before carving.

Love, love, love it.
I used to adore thick MasterCarve for carving stamps, but after a few years hiatus, find that the pink Speedy-Carve works better for me. I'm a bit rusty, so my eyes aren't as sharp and my hands aren't as agile as they once were. I seem to gouge into MasterCarve now. I don't dig too deeply in the Speedy-Carve and am able to get lots of fine details using standard linoleum cutting tools. The thinner Speedy-Carve benefits from mounting if making large stamps. And, if you're unfamiliar with the various carving mediums, I recommend Speedy-Carve over Speedball's ivory-colored Speedy-Cut.I hate Speedy-Cut. It is crumbly, leaves fuzzy edges, and tends to break. There's nothing more irritating than spending lots of time carving an intricate stamp and having it break after only a few impressions. So, if you want to be happy, get Speedy-Carve instead!Here's one of my recent carvings. I really love excited kitties.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best easy-to-carve linoleum substitute
Reviewed in the United States on February 26, 2016
Verified Purchase
This is my new favorite linocut material. It's way easier to carve than typical linoleum (much gentler on my hands!) but firmer and less stretchy/rubbery than other block printing material styled "easy." I've used several products including Speedball's other line (Speedy-Cut), Utrecht's Soft-Kut, and Sax Safe N E-Z Printmaker's Rubber Blocks from Amazon, and this one beats them all in everything except (sadly) price. The pink Speedy Carve holds really fine, sharp lines with no drag on the blade and no flex to the rubber to warp the cut, which was a particular problem for the Utrecht and Sax Safe. It also feels a lot more durable than the other brands, though I haven't really pushed them to their limits. I wish the price were a bit lower, but it's by far the most pleasant material to work with and allows for a lot more precision and detail.

CONTEXT
We wanted to get some shirts and dresses printed for our wedding, but when we got the quote from our local printers, it was insane and not worth it. I had already planned to do block printing on some shirts we purchased and had a little bit of practice, so I figured this would be the perfect time to do it.

PROS
- Very smooth and easy AF to carve.
- This is large! One block of this can make a nice, large print on a dress or shirt.

CONS
- It is quite flimsy, so you'll have to be careful when actually block printing... especially if you make a large print like I did.

OVERALL
I love Speedball carving blocks! They are very easy to use, even for first-timers.

Much more difficult to carve that Master Kut. Material itself is harder than I'm used to. One of the edges was sloped, so I had to cut some off and discard. Image transfer with acetone dissolves the surface a bit. However, it's readily available, the lines are crisp, and there is no crumbling.

This brand is very easy to cut through, even with the inferior quality blades that I bought. This was only my second time carving and I found this product very easy to use. I was able to cut out the stamp I made without any problems. It is much sturdier than other brands, which I like because it is harder to make mistakes. I will be buying this product again as I continue my projects.

5.0 out of 5 stars My #1 carving block
Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2019
Verified Purchase
I have been be carving for 7 years consistently. This is my favorite block, and I have tried "the grey stuff", Staedtler Mars blocks (Moo), etc. I carve with both blades and gouges, so I feel it works really well with both. It gives me very clean lines and hold detail well. I recommend pairing it with Versa-Fine ink if you would REALLY like the details pop.

The was a time period around 2012 where this block ("the pink stuff") was not as good quality as it had been before. The surfaces had microscopic bubbles (you can see then if looking at the edge of the block) that would make lines jagged when cut. This did effect work, but to be honest, I preferred it still over any other option. However, if you get one of these batches, I recommend letting the seller know. However, I have not found myself getting any from this batch in a few years from Amazon, so you should be all set, but it is good to be aware.

I love this stuff. It's soft enough to carve without tiring my hands too quickly or the carving tool slipping off if I strike the angle slightly wrong like it does with traditional lino. You can't get as thin a line, but that doesn't really matter to me. If you're looking for an easy-to-carve block printing stock, look no further. I also think this would be good for beginners.
