I would probably give this press 0 stars if I could. The overall design is just so flawed. It’s near impossible to adjust the off contact in a remotely accurate way, so getting a nice print is pretty difficult. The bolts to adjust the screen angel are so close together that you need the right size wrench to be able to loosen.
I really thought this press would make printing easier but instead I’m frustrated every single time. What a disappointed.
If you do still decide to buy it, know that it will only work with aluminum screens, so if you don’t have any yet make sure you take that additional cost into account. Oh and it doesn’t come with any assembly instructions, and the platen it comes with was labeled as youth even though it does not say that anywhere in the time description.
