My wife has been trying to persuade me to demonstrate printing at public events, using one of my presses. However, even the original car-jack press was just way too heavy and cumbersome to schlep across town or wherever.
So. This one. Using the principle of a proofing press - bed/frame with a moveable roller - I made a bench-hook frame with side rails for use with a handy TALA rolling pin I bought a few years back for another purpose. The first test print has gone OK, even with some crappy cheap ink.
The frame will comfortably take A4+ and has overall dimensions around A3 size so should fit in a bag for transport. All ready to go out and about.
