Easy-to-Cut mounted lino, 8 × 10 inches
Compatibility and working details
- Face
- 8 × 10 in
- Lino layer
- 1/8 in
- Backing
- 3/4 in
When to choose it
Use the 8 × 10-inch face for a design that fits standard artwork proportions, such as a portrait with a narrow margin. The rigid backing gives the larger sheet support while you cut. Measure the raised printing face if the block must sit in a jig made for thinner sheets.
This listing gives a 1/8-inch lino layer on a 3/4-inch mount. Compared with an unmounted 8 × 10 sheet, the footprint can stay the same while the face height changes. Plan pressure and registration around that height before printing a second color.

Questions about this product
Can I use stops built around an unmounted block?
Check height and footprint separately. A jig that holds the same outside size may still sit too low for this face.
What if I want to print to the edge of an eight-by-ten sheet?
Draw the intended print and paper alignment first. A full-size image leaves little space for margins or positioning error.
Is the 3/4-inch figure the carving layer?
It is the backing thickness listed for this model. The lino face itself is listed as 1/8 inch.
