Non-toxic Printmaking

Introducing the Expoguerator!

Submitted by cherrypress1
on Fri, 07/14/2017 - 23:18

The portable Expoguerator created by Skip Klepacki of C.S. Pogue Graphics has an 18 x 24" exposure area and weighs only 16 pounds!  Its riveted aluminium construction makes it lightweight and rugged for studio use at Cherry Press and for teaching positive-working photo processes off-site.  C.S. Pogue's Posi-Coat can be painted on Century Plates to make re-usable photo-litho plates and on copper or aluminium to make photo-etching plates.
