Re: Can't Decide... Any ideas?

Post by bendee2020 »

Hi Guys
Great to join this forum and read through the posts some great advice for getting set up. I have decided on the Ricoh printer but can't decide which press to get. I have been keeping an eye on ebay as suggested on here but there is not much that I can see at the minute (damn you whoever beat me to the pressmach the other day)
The Korean shaking head press was recommended and I see longforte have it for 300. I am swaying toward this at the minute but thought I would see if anyone has any ideas for me around that price mark. I will be starting with phone cases, not sure if any particular press would be good for this?
I am open to any advice so don't be shy.
Thanks in advance
Ben

hmmm that's a touch out of my price range.. by the way I am not asking which press to buy I don't want people going over the same stuff. I'm just asking about the Korean shaking head press and if anyone knows of any specific offers that are knocking about at the moment.
Thanks
Ben

We did have a Korean Shaking Head Press and it's probably the only Chinese ilk press we've had pass through that we were impressed with in terms of build quality (and reassuring weight!)

Very good price too (We'd snap it up if we didn't have enough of them!)
