When to choose it
Hook the near lip over the edge of a table and brace the block against the raised far lip while you carve. This lets the work surface resist forward movement when cutting away from your hand. Check that the bench edge lets the plate sit flat before choosing this style.
Once the cut block is off the plate and the surface is clear, the flat area becomes a place to roll out ink. The nine-by-seven-inch footprint suits a compact bench. Compare the roller width with the space between the lips so there is room to load the roller and move it back and forth.

Questions about this product
Will this work on a table with a rounded edge?
Check how the hook engages and whether the plate stays flat. A thick or rounded lip can prevent firm seating.
What size should I compare with my brayer?
Check the available flat lane in the direction you roll. The outside dimensions include the edges.
Can this replace an ink tray at my desk?
The plate provides a surface to spread ink. Choose a dedicated tray if you want to leave ink set out while carving on a separate stop.
