    the spoon method works well for burnishing. Take a wooden spoon, sand it and apply a little bit of olive oil. Makes it nice and slick. Your hand will eventually cramp up like an old lady if your producing a bunch of prints at one sitting... take a break and drink a beer.

    I'm actually waiting for a teflon coated burnisher to be delivered today. I'm doing a linocut for the NTPE2.

    The 100% cotton rag is not a watercolor paper. It's billed as a mulituse paper. Very soft. Not stiff like wc paper.
