Hi all - well it goes from bad to worse!
I got a replacement blanket from BMS in the end (see previous post) as I was waiting on coralgraph to get back to me to see if their blanket was compatible but I never heard anything ............... couldn't wait so I took the hit as I 'knew' the BMS replacment blanket 'was'.
Anyway, blanket changed about an hour ago - simple job and then ........................ SNAP!
This is the DF1 Mug Press

Hopefully I'll explain my problem well enough as I don't want to touch my camera at the moment. I dropped my brew first thing and smashed the mug then this ............... they say it comes in 3's!
Anyway, at the top of the mug press there is a bolt that is soldered to a smaller bolt, which is clamped through the metal housing of the blanket. When you pull and push the handle the blanket opens - well this has snaped!
The press and blanket is fine but without this bolt the blanket moves around freely and cannot clamp shut!
I just tried BMS just in case they had a spare (for parts) press but got no answer on both numbers (it is Friday after all).
If I haven't explained it well enough please let me know and I'll take some images but basically, if someone has a spare DF1 press (not sure if the other DF presses have the same bit) and can spare this bit I will pay them for it.
Anyone?
Kindest regards to all in advance :-)
