Printmaking Supplies

I've been asked about the materials I use when teaching introductory printmaking.
.....
I supply @speedball_art carving tools with interchangable cutting blades or a variety of sizes of V-gouge & U-gouge tools, though I'm currently using lino (battleship linoleum), I provide Speedy Cut which is easier to cut as it's like a rubber erasor, along with acrylic printmaking ink.
.....
I also bring my heat gun & lino for those who want to give it a try. We share rubber brayers (one for each colour) to roll the ink onto the carving and use either a plastic barren, my small hand press, or wooden spoons for the students to rub the back of the paper once the ink is rolled on & paper laid on top of it.
.....
I also have a bench hook I use to carve on & to roll ink on but with the kids we tend to use coated paper plates. I recently sharpened my tools at my daughter's so I know my next purchase needs to be a honing block. Because I use water soluble ink everything can be washed with soap and water.
.....
There are also smaller introductory kits available through many art & craft stores or online.
.....
Making cards is often one of the funnest little projects, just keep in mind that everything (ie. words) will end up in reverse.
