Invented by acclaimed printmaker Alex Carmona, The Speedball® Spinback™ is a truly innovative solution and an absolute must-have for any relief printer’s studio. Masterfully designed, this one-of-a-kind tool allows printmakers to carve without the risk of accidental slips and alleviates the pain and pressure often experienced in relief printers' hands, elbows and wrists. (22” x 22” x 2.625”)

MAXIMUM VERSATILITY

With a seamless 360˚ rotation, Spinback allows you to quickly and easily rotate your block to carve in any direction whether using wood or linoleum blocks from 1.25” x 2” to 14.8” x 14.8”.  NOTE:  Spinback can accommodate blocks of larger dimensions than those noted, however, full 360˚ rotation is not possible if exceeding the recommended footprint.

ULTIMATE CONTROL

Spinback’s robust design (22” x 22” x 2.625”), non-slip backing and integrated clamping system guarantee your block won’t accidentally shift during carving. This extra stability lets both hands become a part of the carving process, allowing you to dial up the detail and intricacy of your prints, no matter your experience level.

SUPERIOR SAFETY

The smooth and quick transitions offered by Spinback will allow you to carve in a whole new way! Each of the ergonomic features is designed with you and your process in mind to help you avoid accidental cuts while minimizing the wear and tear on joints — perfect for extending the life of any carving career!
