well my new stahl turned up today auto release makes life a bit easier esp when deciding if i have time to answer the phone before the press beeps. mag lock down makes it a breeze to shut no effort no matter what the pressure and rock solid build you can certainly see where the extra ££££ are spent gotta say im impressed

well.....that put me in a situation.....
was all set to buy bms DF1 mug press & 30x38 swing away then.....
coralgraph got new stock in when i checked today....

cash is ready in bank for purchase on wed coming but....

is it - 30x38 swing away from bms
or
40x50 flat bed from coralgraph.......if the flat bed has a floating head i may be tempted.

As i got A3 printers, i,m obviously gonna be doing A3 stuff ( eventually)
Space doesnt matter ....got plenty of it.

people keep telling me the swing away is better for sub printing, as you get an even pressure when you pull the handle down but -
surely you would get the same pressure if the flat bed press had a floating head ?????



The combo i was gonna get is now out !.....seperates all the way !

well...this week is buying week friends....all the asking, all the research, all the time and effort with the website ect.....ITS TIME !

THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP & info over the last 2mths or so !

40x50 from coral was totally fixed head with NO movement at all.....that means you would possibly get the "pinch effect" with thicker items....
ah well....orders away :biggrin:

went with martin @ BMS - swingaway press & mug press....along with a load of bits n bobs for me to try my skills at ...hopefully !
can always buy the bigger 40x50 clam from coral if needed later....not that expensive anyway...

It's meant to come off - it isn't fixed to the bottom part.
