One does not simply level pallets [insert game of thrones meme]

great idea though.  I love the m&r system so far on my kruzer.

Love to se a youtube with a vastex v2000 set up. Went and looked but did not see one in ur channel.
Would really be kinda worth it, as we have the slider style on our autos.

Why not use the platens that are designed for your press? I have not used an M&R press what's better about their products over what I have? Pros / Cons

I don't see how this will work with my Rototex. Or why either, but I get it for the people that it  would work for.

I'm not sure how it would work with something like a vastex or antec where the platens sit far above the actual arm, but that distance is bad in my opinion.  The m&r style is very slim so you can get a smaller shirt around a wider platen more easily, increasing print area and decreasing the times you need to change platens.  the quickrelease system is also very quick and very sturdy.

I apologize for not replying to these questions and comments yesterday. We had a guest here for the day.

This assembly is designed for use with machines that have a pallet arm of 2.5" wide and 1.5" tall. This covers a vast majority of all of the machines in the field. Machines such as Workhorse, Hopkins ( All generations), and a number of others have standardized there machine arm to this size. For the other types of manual machines, these are not applicable.

The advantages of the slide style bracket:

•   The slide style bracket provides strength over the entire length of the pallet.
•   The slide style bracket is the lowest profile and enables printing on the smallest sizes of pallets.
•   Pallets with this bracket are very storage and stack friendly.
•   Shops with this assembly can use the same pallets on their automatic machines and on their manual machines. It standardizes your facility.
•   It makes your shop more versatile.


For 6 years we have been sending out pallets for use on manual machines with our Manual Bracket Adapters. They were the best solution, until now.  The MBA 1’s are great. However – these stay on the press, are sleeker, stronger, easier to use.

I have the Jennings 6/4 press and the arms are 3" wide. So too wide for this. The Jennings pallet mount system is basically a cludgy copy of the M&R one anyway. I've always wondered if the M&R brackets would fit the arms so I could possibly tweak them for compatibility.
