Hello all.
I've used blotting paper most of my life. Still do.
Usually, I cut a sheet to fit my book and just keep it nestled in there. After writing a page, just place the blotting paper over it, smooth it down with my hand and - done. ready to move on. No great shakes, but pretty reliable and efficient.
I have had mishaps, usually when I've been in a rush and been a bit ham-fisted, resulting in a messy smudge. But I imagine that the same thing may have occurred with a rocker, in those same circumstances?
So, my question is: Rocker blotters, is there any advantage?
I've seen some lovely ones (including some beauties here on FPG), but have never owned one.
Mainly because I cannot see the advantage - and it would just be another thing to carry about the place.
Am I missing something? I have used them (other peoples') in the past. They're fun and easy. The movement is very satisfying.
But a simple sheet of blotting paper does the same? No?
Not trying to start a fight with rocker owners/lovers/collectors. Just musing.
Thanks.
