The paper being made passes between a felt and a steel cylinder.

It then passes through a series of steam drying cylinders.

On Octobert 15, 2010 at 1:00 the Cleveland Public Library Special Collections Department celebrated Octavofest with a papermaking demonstration with artists from the Morgan Paper Conservacy including Claudio Orso-Giacone and Tom Balbo.

The paper is now “calendered” by passing it over a steel cylinder to make it glossy – the more cylinders it passes over the glossier it becomes.

I made this paper heart by pouring pulp into a cookie cutter set on a screen.
