Chase channel idly to print perhaps (7)
I believe the answer is:
woodcut
'print perhaps' is the definition.
'woodcut' can be an answer for 'print' (I've seen this before). I'm unsure of the 'perhaps' bit.
'chase channel idly' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'chase' could be 'woo' (to woo is to pursue romantically) and 'woo' is found within the answer.
'channel' could be 'cut' (cut is a kind of channel) and 'cut' is located in the answer.
A single letter 'd' remains which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for woodcut that I've seen before include "picture" , "Type of print" , "Printing block" , "(Print from) incised block" , "Impression" .)
