The Model One Improved Letterpress

[@davidk.helmlyjr.8148]

I’m trying to find rollers and trucks for one I’m rebuilding, any tips? Oh I need that part that holds both rollers too 😅

Mine came with new rollers when i bought it from the now-defunct Don Black Linecasting in Toronto a few years ago. I did however get new rollers and nylon trucks for a 8x12 Chandler and Price press a while back… I think I may have ordered from NA Graphics in the US. As for other parts, that may be a tougher nut to crack. You may want to post on some letterpress boards, check Briarpress, maybe contact Boxcar Press in NY for leads. There are lots of folx in the letterpress community on Instagram, you could follow some related hashtags and see what you come up with. If you need some closeup pics of the press, send me an email and I’d be happy to do that as well as measure things like the rollers etc. robert.truszkowski AT uregina.ca

@@professortruszkowski yes I’d love to connect and figure out all I’m missing. Did the C&P roller fit this model or was that for another press?

The C&P rollers were for our C&P… my thought was the place I got them from might do them for the Model One as well.
