Go to a nearby camera swap meet. They sell cheap ...... ON the last fdew
hours of the last day, they sell cheaper. Otherwise the guy has to schlep
the press home, bet yelled at by his SO, and try to sell it again.
Shipping is possible and priced not too bad compared with new prices, but
the damage probability is too high for my taste. Remember the thing is both
heavy and the center of gravity is low and centered on the mass. In other
words, really difficult to lift or move in any rational way. It may be
dropped easily.
Your other choice is the local flea markets, house sales, or reading the
local throw away paper.
BTW, you realize these came in different sizes? Mine is a 16x20 Seal
Press. There is a 11x14 ( ? Not quite sure of the real sizes) size too.
Get one big enough for your mounting board, jus tin case you want to
actually mount something rather than only flatten it.
Have you tried a .thick steel, glass, or aluminum plate with weights on it?
Other than the heat, this is the same solution.
