Akua Pin Press, 20 inch

The Akua PinPress was designed specifically for monotype printmakers who may not need the use of a heavy etching press. The roller is precisely machined to an incredibly even and smooth surface for uniform contact between the roller, paper, and plate. And its durable all metal construction made of aluminum and brass bushings insures long lasting, trouble-free printing.

The Akua PinPress offers high performance at a fraction of the cost. Plus, you are no longer tied to your studio. The PinPress lets you create monotypes at home, in the classroom, or on the road.

Built in Stand:
The crescent shaped handles swivel and act as a stand when not in use. This prevents the PinPress from rolling off the table by allowing it to be put down without the surface of the roller touching the table.

Easy to Use:
Rest the palm of your hands on the flat side of the crescent shaped handles when printing.

The Akua Pin Press created quite a buzz when introduced at the 2011 NAMTA (The International Art Materials Trade Association) trade show. Voted for by retailers, distributers, manufacturers and NAMTA staff members, the Akua Pin Press was awarded NAMTA’s Art Materials World 2011 Best New Product.
