That is a steal on that press.

I had one very nice press for a back clamp.

But it is unbelievable how heavy they are.

What are you using now?

I bought one just like that and then sold it because of space.

I sold it for $1500 and that was a good deal for the press.

Mine was in perfect shape with low mileage on it.

That is a SMOKING deal!  That's not a legend though is it?  Might just be newer/cleaner than mine.

If it's a legend then it's work at LEAST 2k... I'd buy and sell it if I was local.

BTW, I bought my 6/4 Legend for $1500 with the Antec Auto flash with Air!  And mine had been underwater during Katrina (though he didn't disclose that to me, I found out on my own, but it was still a steal!)

Wow that is an awesome deal. I wonder how old that thing is. I'd probably take the 8 hour drive each way if it was in decent condition. What do you think the footprint is on it?

With HELP! ;)

We put 2x4's under it and move it like it's an egyptian thrown and that is still tough for 2 people to move around!

I have been waiting on a return text from him.  I am hoping to see some better pics.  I was looking for another 6/4 or 4/4 now that I have a dryer large enough to run two presses at once.

Two people can pick it up when arms and screen heads are taken off.
One head look busted, it should not be that high up.

Yeah, with heads off it would lighter... but I'd suggest just taking the whole top piece off if you are going to do that... only like 6 or 8 bolts.

But leaving the heads on two people CAN do it but it's a beast!

He sent me some larger pics.  Does not appear to be a legend in the pics as there are no micros.  I will pass on it at this point.  If it was a legend I would have picked it up today.

That seams to be a model before Legend or a Tracer. Only one registration gate (like tracer) and looks like there is no micro adjustments on the heads.
If someone is interested, contact Dave Peterson from Antec, he should be able to tell you more about the press.
