A New-to-us Press for relief and letterpress

14/3/2016

Imagine our excitement when we received an email asking us if we would like to have a press for the cost of the removal! Post-haste the Committee went to view and decided YES, it was a good press and suitable for our back room and would cater for our enthusiastic relief printers.
We got the Friendly Moving Men in to shift it. They used three young strong strapping fellows. I don't usually advertise in these pages, but I have to say they were extremely easy to work with. Highly recommended.

So then it needed an overhaul, a clean up and to be fixed in position.. Thankfully Allan Dabscheck is an old hand with presses and he is in the process of getting it ready to use. We are really excited about this new press. Its going to be fantastic!
