When to choose it

Choose the 3 × 5-inch block for a narrow image such as a gift label or small vertical symbol. The short side is the first fit check. Leave space for the cut and your working margin, then compare the full five-inch length against the planned image.

The listing describes a 1/8-inch lino face on a 3/4-inch backing. That makes it a different fit from a loose sheet in a shallow jig. Choose a 5 × 7-inch block if the composition needs more space across its short side.

Questions about this product

Would a three-inch roller cover the whole short side?

It can span that width if it is aligned. Leave room for the frame and proof the edges before committing the print.

Which measurement matters for a shallow stop?

Check the total mounted height. The listed 3/4 inch is the backing alone.

What size should I consider if I need wider lettering?

A 5 × 7 face adds two inches across the short side. Compare the actual layout before choosing.
