Breaks my heart. I learned a little of this trade (Graphic Arts) in 1976 and 1977 in High School. Albuquerque, NM. Where has the time gone? And what exactly are the kids learning these days?
I worked for a company that did high end laser color separations back in the 1970s. We also manufactured plates for offset, gravure and letterpress, but our letterpress was mostly for newspaper and b/w magazine advertising - nothing very complex like they're doing here.
As someone who has experience with modern printers of all shapes and sizes I am simply in awe of the craftsmanship and effort that is put into the products you guys show on this channel. The manual color mixing blows my mind every time. Not to mention the parts we don't get to see. Such as the creation of the custom dies used in these projects.
the cutting dies are created manually by thin knife-like metal strips. The copper dies are lasered or etched. Usually those things are not done in-house
Thank you. A lot of difficult letterpress work goes unappreciated and undervalued in today’s world. The amount of skill and dedication it takes to become a printmaker is rarely recognized. Thanks again.
Everyone is (rightly) impressed with the skillful printing work...I'd also like to give a shoutout to the videographer - these shots are beautifully done...the whole thing is a pleasure to watch!
Thank you very much Karen! We can’t even begin to tell you how talented and hardworking our videographer truly is. He is a master printer and photographer too. Capable of any task.
I'm always mesmerized by these videos but it blew my mind when it came to watching the manual operation during the printing process ensuring saturation of black.
Okay, cut it out. Stop trying to steel the show. In all seriousness, those were some next bevel puns. I'd be hard pressed to ink of better ones. Okay, I'd better stop, these jokes are getting a bit dicey.
Ugggh, this was such a joy to watch! There are few things which make me happier than watching old-school craftsmanship. And the end result? Nothing short of perfection. It didn't look like much to me at first, but the way the design popped out and suddenly gelled with the black layer surprised me. And then the foil.... wow! The subtle icing on the cake - a beautiful highlight which elevated the piece to be more than the sum of its parts. Thank you for taking the time to share this.
Thank you James! I really appreciate you taking the time to watch. We have some other unique ideas planned that expand on what is possible for print production. Can’t wait to show ya!
You are a true master of graphic art! Glad to see someone else is making use of this amazing iron, I graduated with distinction in 1980 in photo offset fundamentals, we were trained on heidlebergs offsets and Letterpress windmills and I share your love of the craft, I stunned the instructors when I requested a set of 4 color plates for the letterpress and the operator's manuals for both presses, I went on to print a 4 color Scottish Coat Arms on the letterpress with perfection and did an 8 color job in a single pass on the offset press by setting the oscillation rollers to 0 and splitting the ink fountain with 8 ink colors, it was the first job I sold to a DJ who had a gig and wanted a funky poster. I was in love with the power of print on the first day of class when I saw my family name Hamilton on the drawer handles of the type cases, the instructors gave me an honorable mention and the Sears Robuck Award saying that no one had ever mastered the creative capacity of the presses as I had, I started my own shop in 1987 and have been running ephemeral art ever since, printing, hot stamping, diecutting, embossing on a vast arsenal of equipment,
You get what you pay for, i work as Screen printer for a transfer business, to many places are cutting corners and going cheap. A huge thumbs up for doing it the old way and being appreciated for it.
I ran a windmill for the better part of seven years. Never any ink, foil and embossing only. A Chandler and price with kluge feeder too. Mostly numbering on that one. Very satisfying work. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
I love those Kluge feeders but boy are they tricky. If the suction doesn’t trip right when you need it... you’ll have sheets throwing all over the place.
@@JukeboxPrintLive get rid of that tiny metal claw as the sheet separater and change over to brushes. The next two or three sheets are held in place by the bristles and don't go anywhere.
Very nice work. The final card is awesome. But what I love the most is this machine and the memory of it. Exactly the same as the one from a printer I used to go to when I was a kid. I loved the smell of his workshop, and especially listening to the machine breathe along with that mechanical beat. I'd love to record that. Thank you.
Wow. You have done it again. All those elements in one job - all things I have done - but you make it look so easy! Nice, clean cutter with a sharp blade, beautiful rollers.... I am jealous! I began laminating my own duplex when I could no longer buy it new. In fact, I have a few small lots of duplex card stock from the 1980's - offcuts which I use for special business cards. These days, I make my own as you did. Damn, you guys are good. I'd have been proud to have you in my shop back in the day. These days I work alone and enjoy practicing my craft of nearly 60 years - with no deadlines! ;)
Alan, we can’t thank you enough for your comments and encouragement. We all learned from apprenticing under trades people that grew up working in the golden era of print production. Our goal is to keep that alive and push the boundaries as far as we can while still respecting the trade. Makeready is everything and we refuse to cut corners.
@@JukeboxPrintLive Happy to help. It's young printers like you folks who will keep this craft alive after all of us old guys who grew up in the trade have passed on to the great print shop in the sky. Getting close here. I started printing in 1962 and have recently turned 70, which I figure gives me another 20 or so years to continue my work. My web site - ExcelsiorPress.org is all about passing on the things I have learned in the past 60 or so years.... What I appreciate most of all is your accuracy and adherence to the proven techniques that were developed over so many years. - and, of course, such fine, fine work and great presentation of the proven techniques that work so well - serving as a great example to encourage others to emulate in the future.
The thing I love most about this content is that its very clear how much effort is put into the work. If i ever get big enough i'm coming to you for merch. Thanks.
This video just happened across my feed... it sure brought back memories. I never had an opportunity to work on a Heidelberg Windmill, but I’ve ran my share of Kluge’s, Chandler and Price’s (including a handfed!) and even a Miller Rotary that my boss bought used and I rebuilt. I’ve done offset but I specialized in the old platen letter presses; at the end of the era in my county, I dismantled many and packed them up to go have a new life elsewhere. Thank you for the trip down memory lane!
Seriously impressed .You guys are not only right at the top of your game >But at the top of THE BUSINESS GAME . If this level of passion and skill was applied to any product you made .It would be an amazing product .
I'm in awe..that is one fabulous calling card.Prob also very expensive, but it's fabulous. some 30 years ago we had a foling machine at work where we would only do one kindof foiling as the letters were too hard to change for every occasion. We only did Christmas cards
Amazing! Master Cheff...and any other Crap is on TV/Media. have nothing to do compare to The Amazing Printing Art! I mean it! I have over 30 years experience into the Graphic Design. In 1980 I learned to be part of this Amazing world!! In today's World just few are Craftman like you are. That Heildelberg is an Amazing machine! You did a Master Card and Keep doing what seems you Love to do. I wish one of my 3 boys were able to do something like that with me...I hope in the near future I will get one more Printing Press on my hands! Awesome Work!!
I love seeing that you are getting good use out of those old Heidelberg windmills, and it is really nice seeing some one still taking the time to print with them, as sadly our shop don't use any of our three to print with any more. But we still use the hell out of them to foil, make impression, and die cut. been working around these machine for a few years now, and I just love how these old machine just last, granted I mostly just convert envelopes in our print shop.
Get some rollers and a can of ink and get moving! Ink on these machines is a whole different beast than die cutting or creasing but well worth the time to learn. If you have any questions feel free to ask!
That is a very advanced letter press. My parents bought me a Kelsey 3x5 printing press for my 12th birthday. I used to print cards and pencils. it is in my parents attic.
I started on an Adana 5x8 with a few trays of lead type. I’d spend my time in an attic printing thank you cards and small stationery pieces too. In an attic no less!
Wow, that is the most work I have ever seen anyone put into something as usually forgettable as a business card. If I were to receive this card, I couldn't even put it in my wallet, I would have to frame it instantly. That was a thing of beauty to watch
Took me back to my childhood watching my dad run a printing buisness out of our home. I caught the tail end of him running an 1880s printing press(still have it). I used to have ALOT of kicks out of the paper press, I couldnt tell you how many action figures I mutilated over time, my dad had his side of the blade, and I had mine,lol
ha! that's a great story. I still have a 1895 Golding Pearl Press in my childhood bedroom. I once used a hot stamping press to grill a steak too. Printing equipment will always be a hoot.
I remember when I was in school, this was the basic printing technique, arranging letters one by one and then locking them in the frame, adjusting the height for pressure with several layers of paper. I used to learn basic printing using a degel heidelberg machine. a very old, antique and rare machine .
When I was in college back in 1972 in Sarasota Florida, one of my professors had a printing company on the side with an old-style press. I had him make me 500 business cards and he used an old original "Circus" font that was used by Barnum and Bailey Circus (Ringling Brothers). I still have a couple of them.
I’ve still got about 8 cabinets of type in my personal collection. Lots of unique typefaces haven’t made the transition into digital yet too. Thanks for watching!
So bummed, thought there was a new butcher in my neighborhood. The address is Panera Bread's parking lot. Hopes shredded, like the off-cuts from these beautiful cards.
I have wanted to find a channel like this for some time! Printing is something I want to get into. Easy to follow style and an amazing result! Bet your boots I subscribed!
New Jukebox print video out?! Instantly makes an evening better. The sounds of letterpress are just mesmerizing! Here's a question for you: Do you tend to try and minimize the amount of wastage on both the card stock as well as materials used? I notice that the amount which is die cut is significantly smaller than the card stock size which you guillotined. Is this just so that the machine has something to pick up from? Similarly with the foil, it seems to pull an inch through each time when in the end its only transferring about half of that, of which half is die cut away. Does it affect how cost effective particular designs are, or in the grand scheme of things does it not actually contribute much towards the cost?
I can only say for our shop, and the way our machines are set up. As i know at our shop we try our best to minimize waste as much as we can, but watching him in this video is close to how ours runs. With our heidelberg windmills can only go down to a certain size for the over all piece, and just like the foil you seen, that is about the smallest it will move the reel, to make sure there is fresh foil for the next piece. and yes it seem like a lot of waste, but really it is not that much. As of the cost, only they can answer that, as I don't have a clue where they source their paper/ink/foil/ and dies.
@@twinbladefrua9340 Thanks for the reply! Makes sense that it's the minimum size / amount it'll work with. I'd love to see one of these machines doing a full-sized print! Would be epic!
For an order of, say, 500 cards, how many extra cards do you allow for for testing registration and stuff? It seems that with each step you lose a couple of cards to test printing.
Took me back 65 years, I did not realise how highly skilled us old printers were.Loved those Heidelbergs.

I love watching printing, Silk Screening, Machine Embroidery, Sublimation...... I'm just a crafty guy.
When graphic design enters the physical world through any medium, it’s just cool to watch how it’s made!
The card is totally badass, goes without saying, but I think my favorite thing is watching that paper cutter in action. What a glorious machine.
Ugggh, this was such a joy to watch! There are few things which make me happier than watching old-school craftsmanship. And the end result? Nothing short of perfection.

You are inspired artists and turn paper into a work of art. A pleasure to watch you.
Thank you so much Bernd!
Nicely done! Real craftsmanship. Good to see that those windmills are stil in use.
We’ve got a whole fleet of them working non-stop. Today’s modern platen presses just can’t hold a candle to these workhorses.
I would love to see a tour of one of your presses - how the paper moves through, all the gears and levers and adjustments, etc.
Great idea Patrick. I will suggest that for the next one!

For an order of, say, 500 cards, how many extra cards do you allow for for testing registration and stuff? It seems that with each step you lose a couple of cards to test printing.
We'll lose maybe 5 sheets for a set up of a single step. Which is pretty good. So, overall we try to make sure we run 10% extra as a safety net.
27 people on Earth clicked a thumbs down on this video? Baffling, as this kind of video/content is sublime. Keep it coming xx
