"He who marches out of step hears another drum." ~ Ken Kesey
Those are the great presses to choose from. Just out of curiosity, why Antec Legend is not on the list?Was it eliminated, or it was never on the list?That press is maybe the lightest press to operate, very easy to turn and set up. Easy to turn gets helpful on a long runs, your hands will thank you.Easy to set up and holds registration for a loooooong time. I have a 23 year old press that runs like a champ.I believe there is a pretty good deal on Digitsmith on the used on (In florida)Good luck, you will not make a mistake with any of those presses.

And whenever I would read about Vastex and M&R the Antec would come up for that reason you mentioned. I have some good (somewhat) local dealers for both Vastex and M&R which had steered me towards them. That and the claims of great quality and service. Not that Antec doesn't have that I just seem to hear about it regarding Vastex and M&R at every turn.
I have a Kruzer and it's very nice. You get a lot of bang for your buck with that press. Like others have said, you won't go wrong with any choice.

But I am and always will be a smaller shop so 6c 4s may be all I need.
I'm curious as to why you always want to be a manual shop?

I needed a change. I wanted to make things with my hands again. I love pulling the squeegee, getting different textures and results with different pressures. Being able to make art again with my hands. Prince Ink Co. out of the VA are my inspirations.
