In this class we will explore the world of titling on books using type and dies for heated applications known as stamping. The twentieth century has granted us two machines commonly used for this purpose: the Kwikprint and the Kensol. Learning the basic safety guidelines and the simple techniques for using them, we will guide you to making a perfect impression with hand-set type and magnesium dies. Projects we'll complete will be to make a title label for a book using brass or zinc type, and an Ex Libris bookplate with a magnesium die.
