We have a 2000 , love it. One of the best features are the square print arms that allow us to make just about any kind of pallet we need quickly and literally tape it to the arm.
Here are some details the pics should tell the better story.
The way our press is set up there is approximately 3.5 to 3.75 inches of height difference from the bottom of the screen (when then head is down) and the top of the standard pallet.
This distance is easily made up by building a pallet consisting of 2 typical 2x4 's and a piece of 3/4 in cabinet grade ply or melanine board.
Now before you laugh your ass off try this experiment. Remove one pallet leaving just the arm. For the experiment get a piece of 2 x 4 everyday lumber about 12 to 16 inches long.
Lay about 8 to 10 inches of that length on the 2000 arm, (here is the beautiful part) and tape that sucker down with several rounds of duct tape or similar.'
Really stretch the tape as you wrap several layers around the 2000 arm and 2x4. Do this in two places several inches apart.
Now try to move the 2x4. If you really worked the tape thing that sucker will be solid
Now you have a simple quick way to glue , screw or otherwise build , attach a 1.5 in spacer and a 3/4 in thick pallet on that arm and you have virtually an instant shop built pallet in any size configuration you need at the right height to meet the print screen.
We have made many of these over the years for all kinds of baby items, toddler and infant stuff, sleeves, legs, butts jacket backs etc.
Initially we started out bolting the pallets down , then evolved to using clamps and then finally to using some real stretchy vinyl tape like electrical tape except it is 1.5 inches wide.
The only real drawback to this is you have to be somewhat handy with wood or metal . If you are a metal guy look into the metal 2x4 studs and some of the structural & deck hardware home centers sell .
