Re: FOR SALE: ademco press 2226 needs to go!
I've been using an almost identical Ademco press, ever since I first got started and they are a great piece of kit. They are probably obsolete by now, but they go on forever. I would not be without mine. Ideal bit of kit for anyone starting out and watching their finances.

This is too far for me to collect sadly, but just out of interest, are you limited to the size of the press when dry mounting or can you put bigger posters in and do it in sections? I've seen a video that suggests you can do this but doesn't show how

This item is now sold.
And with regards to your question BeatnikFraming, apparently it can be done but my colleague said he'd definitely recommend doing a few practice runs. When it comes to moving the work around, overlap the area you're pressing rather than trying to "butt up" the edges as it'll help keep the surface even. Bear in mind that the materials will expand and contract as they're heated and cooled. Hope this helps!
