Item # 212-2 is a 21-1/2” wide x 15-1/2 Deep” Larger Format Economical Book Press for pressing flat books, note pads, or similar items. With a 21-1/2” x 13-1/4” working area between the posts, there is lots of room to press 11” x 17” page work – and larger.

Each plate is made from two (2) pieces of ¾” Maple top plywood glued flat and smooth sanded (total 1-1/2” thick per plate). Supplied in natural state less any finish or stain, and ready to use as is, or for your sealer / finish of choice. (For a polyurethane or other finish version, please inquire). Both top and bottom plate have an ample recess milled in the sides so you can easily lift or manipulate the plates, as the double thick plates weigh about 9-1/2 lbs. each. The 8-inch long bolts also give a total opening height of 4-5/8” (nominal) (with full nut engagement), so thick or multiple works can be pressed flat at the same time. The table is 21-1/2” wide x 15-1/2” deep.

The soft feel over-sized knobs can be easily spun down holding everything firmly in place with minimal effort. No fighting with wing nuts & hurting fingers trying to get proper clamping pressure. A total of six (6) bolts with knobs allow for uniform clamping over this larger area.

Overall nominal dimensions: 21-1/2” wide x 15-1/2” deep x 8” high (top of bolt). Six plated 8” Long 3/8” diameter carriage bolts are seated into recesses in the lower platen. The top platen is pressed down by using six over-sized 2-1/2” diameter polypropylene knobs with metal thread inserts for extra ease in clamping down tightly. Oversized extra thick plated washers help spread the pressure from the knobs.

Press is shipped un-assembled and requires light assembly of carriage bolts to plate, but no tools are needed.
