Carbon Transfer printing

Post by Bruce Pickering » Wed Apr 09, 2014 12:18 pm Etc/GMT-1+01:00

Does anyone know anybody offering carbon transfer courses in the UK, or would anyone doing this process be happy to have me visit for a day to watch and learn how they do it?

Thanks
Bruce

I can't believe he is based in Scarborough, which is where I live on a weekend. Spend the week living on my canal boat.

Thanks

Hi Bruce,
A course is definitely the way to go; it took me a couple of years to get the hang of the process. I never get tired of watching the soot wash off the print as it is developing. I am not printing much at the moment, but if you are in North Wilts at any time, I have lots of prints with examples of what can go wrong :D

Best regards,

Evan
