Side note, if 10oz canvas is wavy, if framing there are good techniques that can keep this from happening. Hinges secured with beva 371 that wrap to the back and get secured, strip lining with beva 371 and secure to back, or even strip line with bev…

Is there any chance at all the moisture of the wheat paste getting to the ink? I can try it on a test print out, but if water reaches the ink, it will be toast in this case which was demonstrated on my test sheet, but I can test it on my printout te…

Guessing these are more likely high altitude aerial and not satellite...

Some photos of the test for the 9/11 test…again, this is a snippet from the full 36” square satellite plotter prints on October 2001. Gives you an idea of the impact of these images.

I wasn’t thrilled with texture of the 12oz medium texture of the canvas. Going to try Jerry”s 10oz smooth canvas…then I guess Belgium if I don’t like that.
also just did some testing of a small water soluble sheet on the 52gsm mulberry us… -
The x-100 is common and founded mixture in the comic conservation space, figure paper is paper (ish, you get my point), I’ll research orvus as well. Just went with it as not much specifics were found here. The masa dried for 24 hours and I did blend…

Cleaned and Deacidified the poster, although to be honest, it was super clean and this wasnt even one I would have selected for mounting, but just something of no value I thought would be good to try. I will let it sit for a few days, but overall it…

Ok, the masa paper is mounted onto the canvas, no major issues. Other than I forgot to put the wheat paste through the blender, but dont see any clumps, so will just take that as a lesson learned. Really made the canvas turn tight as a very tight d…

Ok, prepping everything for a test poster. I have the paste cooling and will then get to appropriate consistency, added calcium carbonate (about 1:10). De-acidify/Cleaning solution is 150ml Saturated Calcium Hydroxide, 450ml of Distilled Water and 6…

Very pleased with the near finished wash tray. Did the drain yesterday which will go to a silicone tubing and run into a 5 gallon bucket (Harbor Freight free one of course). I did a test pour on a sample to see what the stiffness would be and if it …

A Valiani…nice. Certainly went big. Unfortunately my shop doesnt have the power to support a CMC but currently scoping out retail locations and maybe…just maybe. Well done.

Ok, got distracted on another overengineered project. While this may seem like it is unnecessary and unnecessarily overengineered (which it is), it does atte…

lol…totally get it on the stretcher, and will probably just remove the gadgetry in the end and staple traditionally. I have an electric cordless that works great for stretching but same goal is achieved. This first 2 set used basswood as i way over …

Well, it just ate at me too much and I went ahead and ordered the Japanese brushes, that is really what I want to learn on and not the popular way most do it. Also had the 52gsm mulberry roll added to that. So technically I believe I have every con…

I am getting ready for my first one this week. Just got my last supplies in an hour ago, so time to just do it. Debating if I should bite the bullet and get the Japanese brushes…but think I will just do something with what I have and learn from it. …
