Thanks for the Absolute Beginner video. Just FYI, the origins of Gel Plate printing, go back a long way. Hectograph printing (also called Gelatine Duplicators or Jellygraphs) date back to the 1870s, and in fairly common use in duplication until the early 20th Century when they became replaced by spirit duplicators and later mimeographs. Gelatine duplicators have an interesting wartime history in both world wars as the low technology needed and portability made them ideal for clandestine and field documents.

Oh my gosh thank you so much! YT started recommending videos about gel plate printing and I watched them but I had no clue what I was watching. The results were amazing but I didn't know where to begin to do it myself. This answered all my questions!!

[@mrs.m.b.3630]

Thank you so very much! Yours is still one of the few actual tutorials for beginners instead of by beginners.

[@ml10102]

This helped me so much. It's hard to decide when its dry enough to put a different color and so on. Thank you for this video!

[@sandralegardy8308]

Thank you for showing how one can use "STAMPS" on the gel plate. I just started using my and sometimes I get lost, with the inks and paint not knowing how to use them. Thank you again. I will view more of your KZbin to understand the process.

Coffee filters work great in place of deli paper. The upside to using coffee filters is that you can use them in other projects. They give a similar affect to using craft tissue paper.

[@gillmolony6781]

Well that was just exactly what I wanted. Thank you so much.

[@triciamichael4108]

Thank you! I haven’t used my plate yet, because my table needs cleaned up first, lol. This was very helpful!

[@foggybummers]

Thank you for this tutorial. New to gel printing and this is exactly what I needed to get going. Much appreciated 🖤

[@debrasbarkle4896]

That's so funny that you include interruptions 🤣 That's brilliant! Because our days can be filled with those.

[@jessicam1761]

I often forget about gel printing. This video does a fantastic job getting my creative juices flowing when wanting to grab my gellies! Tfs 💕

[@christeenmckenzie1659]

I just found you and am so grateful to have your video. It gets daunting watching a lot of videos when you’re just looking for basics. Thank you for the one stop shopping - it’s so much appreciated!

[@lindagreiss4093]

Thank you so much for such an awesome beginner video!

You have lovely hands. Thanks for this tutorial. I just bought myself a kit and plan to play with it right after Christmas!

I've been wanting to do some gelli plate printing, but found the videos lacking. You gave me great information. You did a terrific job of teaching me! Thank you!

[@lynnetteb4784]

Thank you so much for this introduction video. While I watch my favorite KZbinrs use and mention hello plates I had no idea even what it was… much less how to take care of it. Everyone shows printed techniques, like you say, so God bless you for speaking directly to people like me! I’m excited now to try mine (just finally found one at Michael’s today).
