Im currently building my own press to my specs. hate using part made bats, nothing against them but I enjoy that bit as much as fashioning the cleft. Also experimenting with a few ways of working. Only just signed up today so in the next couple of weeks I'll upload what I've made.

Hi buddy I believe we have been in touch before

When can I come and see your press?

Hi Buddie ,welcome to the forum  can you give us some more details about the press your building?

Thanks guys. Well I gave up trying to get into companies after sending of hundreds of letters and loads of phone calls. I wrote to Matt at H4L but you never replied! I was upset lol.

Erm press wise I haven't decided on the final design yet but either a counter balance (if it fits into the space) or a standard screw down but on a lever.  Shame the lack of funds and university overdraft is hindering me. Thank you government!
