The paper press is really overbuilt. I got my monies worth. Smooth operating that can mean multiple uses for this press. Not just bookbinding. Bearings and anything you need to squeeze or flatten. I'm not always going to need a paper press but the because of the many other uses , i will keep it with my other needed tools. Now, the bookbinding hot glue machine will take some time to get back about. I will study it a bit before I get it up and running. I have stacks of work building up around it but I got to finish that part before I concentrate on this next and final step. I want to understand pack and get the supplies set up. It has some weight to it. I thought I'd be about the size of a copy machine. Nope. Industrial in size to put it mildly. I'm figuring on getting it up and running after it's been here a few days. I'm sure it's all anyone could appreciate about this process and I'm not going to run away just because it might need a bit of fine tuning to get it operating smoothly. The reason I say this is it also surprised me. It's a giant. If anything could help get the job done, this is got to be it. So far I unpacked it and have been watching how it works on several videos that dislike and guide in how to use it. It's huge. The old lady is a bit taken back by the size. A bit large for about the office and house. When not in use for times it will be set away in the shop. But buying it shows my commitment to getting these books done and delivered. It came with a small bag of glue, but there's a few things more I'll need. And looks like it's all here , parts and such . Watch the many videos before your here and I am going to be happy with it I'm sure. Hope it all functions as described. B I it well enough to say the least. I can't wait until I get through these stacks and people read my work. I went overboard in getting this giant tool but it may make the job easier. It's huge! Worth the money. I saw same machines for over 1,000 bucks. Same machine!
