easiest spinning manual press
Posted: Thu Jan 14, 2010 4:06 pm
We are getting a new 6/6 manual press. At the moment it looks like a Vastex 2000. I personally would like an easy spinning press and one that will stop on its "stopper" if you spin it just right. We had a Hix that would do that - it had a urathane type ball and the press arm would roll on to it. I haven't tried a M&R Chameleon. I've read a lot of favorable remarks on it. It does seem to be considerably more $ than the Vastex. Also, I'd like a press with plattens that don't require pre-heating under a flash unit to start a job. I can't get ink to flash on these cold plattens without warming them up first.
