I TOTALLY agree with Kseniya,Last year I found a steel in an Adana press in the UK – now because I live in the Caribbean in a British OT it seemed like it made more sense to me to purchase it – even with the currency conversion and the price to ship – it still came under from other adanas I’ve seen for sale. I was living on Briar Press for months and I even put out a desperate plee of LOL. Frustrated I went ahead and bought the press, which is still a good deal. It sailed over to my island and I have it for a few months now trying to fill some orders.First thing I had to take it apart completely to clean it up (if you plan to do this take tons of photos – TONS – it will save you a lot of time and trouble when the time comes to put it back together). That was the type of adventure I somehow found interesting but after all the screams and head aches I learned a lot about the functioning of my press. To get it up to the point where I am at right now I watched tons of videos online and read through lots of responses from the briar press community with other new persons trying to get up and running. I am filling an order right now using the press but it still isn’t balanced and I had to actually make up parts with the help of welding and wood work shops around the island. You will have much more resources than I have right now but it can be a very frustrating.I am now in the process of trying to get a much bigger press, a C&P, and based on my past adventure I am setting a reasonable budget for what’s out in the market and will be getting a press from someone who knows and teaches letterpress. I plan to try to learn on the press before crating it and sailing it to paradise. Though getting my inexpensive press and going through the entire ordeal has been and still is hair raising – I’m glad I learned a lot about the workings of my press, but I’m going to opt to simplify my life a bit at this moment and put some money in investing (that is what we should consider it really to be) in a press I know will only need some TLC and occasional oil to keep me pressing.
