Thanks for all of your replies! When I wrote this, I was thinking of purchasing a local tabletop printer in excellent condition. Since then, I’ve been off to the Penland School of Crafts to study traditional printing and have become much more inclined towards printing on Vandercooks. I’m looking out for an Sp15 now. While I’m still no mechanic, I think I’d be willing to pay a pretty penny for any that I knew I could get home and in working order.Again, I surely appreciate all of your help!
