Hi,

I have recently given up sublimation printing and as a consequence have for sale a 'like new' Adkins 38x50 'Deep Impact' Swing Head Press. This press has hardly been used since buying it from new. Apart from the very occasional mousemat all of my orders have been decorating onto mugs.

Adkins are well known for their heat presses, they are the best on the market and made in the UK! This larger 'Deep Impact' Press is ideal for longer print runs because the extra room enables you to do more items at once, which in turn cuts down on production time. The 'Deep Impact' press gives you more flexibility when it comes to printing different items because you can print onto thicker items up to 17mm deep which would not be possible on an ordinary swing press (more infomation can be found at http://www.themagictouch.co.uk/hardware/heatpress.htm)

To purchase this new will cost you £1,194 inc vat. I will be offering it on ebay this weekend for £795 but would accept £750 if anybody was interested. I will also include in the sale a selection of imprintables if they are wanted, they are as follows:-

35 x Durham Mugs
48 x Textile Coasters (square)
9 x Textile Mousemats (rectangular)
4 x Textile Mousemats (cicular)
9 x Ceramic Tiles
3 x Xpress Tee's (medium)

I also have bottles of unused sublimation ink suitable for a bulk ink system if it was of use.

Kevin.

Hi Laura,

The warrenty was for 12 months and has since run out, however it is in mint condition having had little use. It is in perfect running order I tried it the other day, honestly I doubt if you would find one better. If you would like me to send you some pictures just let me know.

Regards
Baz.

Warranties definitely run out then! Lol. That'll be the model with the matching upper platen rather than the grey? They were better built than the later models in my experience.

Justin, correct it does have the matching platten as you say.

Laura, I agree with your comments of course along with Justin's when he say's the older machines were better made. I am open to reasonable offers, it will be listed later today on ebay if you are interested.

Regards,
Baz.

ok will pm you, but i think for ebay a date of manufacture would help, as otherwise esp with the link to the current magic touch presses, it does look as if you are selling a 1/2yr old machine

Hi

Forgot to mention ref the guarantee, Adkins presses do come with a "Lifetime heat element guarantee" (check their website).
