I know, I know, I know guys that puppy is pretty sweet, even came with a discharge hose.  ;D

This was just supposed to be a joke post to blow off some steam earlier today. I will say one of the small advantages of living up here where it is cold as hell already, is we have basements. Our space is not a "warehouse" it is actually a old corner grocer from 1910 with like 4 additions. Wood floors, which suck for the most part, but like I said it gives me a basement! You wouldn't believe the crap I have down there! Bottom of the stairs is a perfect place for a washer/dryer. We have been dabbling in a bunch of "in house" hybrid ink mixtures and I have been bringing a grocery bag full of tests home every night. 5 minutes, Craigslist and $50 later, we have our own IN HOUSE Testing Department ;D


Thread jack- What shuttle presses are those?  I really like the design.

The presses are actually from a little endeavor of mine 4 or 5 years ago, oh yes, I was going to import and sell heat transfer machines..... Never panned out, I spend too much time involved with the shop! So those puppies are prototypes of what we were going to sell. The small one(4'x4") has been a workhorse and has probably seen 20,000 tagging impressions! I saw at a ISS show a year or two back someone is selling the same design under the name Bulldog or something.
I actually have a large 2 station air operated one that is a different design I would let go for damn near nothing if someone wants it. Works fine, I just don't need as many as we have ever since closing down our other store front a while ago.

Let me get the platen measurements tomorrow first, it is big. If I remember correctly, it needs a 25amp->30amp 110 dedicated line.

Good to know.  Shoot me a pm whenever you have a price.  I do a ton of heat pressing lately and the air assist and multiple station would be awesome.
