Re: boring question, sorry... cheap swing press recommendation?

Post by gavtheoldskater »

sadly i don't have the funds for an adkins et al, nor can i see any used at present either, so before i pull the pin on a swing away from coralgraph for about 100quid (i have a huge clamshell i bought from them about 5 years ago that although crude woks fine, its just too big for most of our jobs) just thought i'd see if anyone had any other recommendations for a cheaper (roughly a4) swing press supplier.

needless to say if any traders/shops want to contact me with deals for new/used feel free, i won't be offended. thanks

I have a Coralgraph a4 swing away that I use for playing with ideas. Had it a few years and works a treat. Not up to the hammering my pressmech gets but then that is a different beast.

Same here, just use it as a backup press and it works fine. Initially bought it to print acrylics as my Adkins doesn't open wide enough, still do the odd one on it as it heats up quickly and is easy to use :-)
