Máy in 3D Phantom Plastic Printing Press khổ 6 inch

I wanted a tabletop printing press I could take with me to events for live printing and be big enough for me to actually print postcard sized prints. The gearbox gives a powerful 5:1 gear reduction while also remaining compact and beautiful. I make linocuts with big black areas so I needed a press that could deliver a lot of power. The gearbox can be mounted to the top or bottom roller for your own preference. The best part is you can make your own pressbed out of wood or metal, as long as it is 6 inches wide it could be as long as you want… you could have an 8ft press bed if you wished.

The parts for the press should not exceed 210mm in any direction so it should be printable on most standard 3d printers. 

I spent months modeling, printing, breaking, and improving this design so it would be foolproof to put together and use. I would appreciate it if you printed the nameplate and attached it to the base of your press so I can get a little bit of credit. Also do consider sending me a picture of your press once it is finished and send me a picture of what you print with it on instagram! You can find me @someprintdude on instagram.

You will also need:

Two 5/16 x 3inch threaded rods and two 5/16 lock nuts. For my metric friends two 8mm-1.25 x 100mm threaded rods and two 8mm-1.25 lock nuts. 

Super Glue

lubricating oil (3in1 oil, silicone, or grease)

If you don't print a base or press bed:

Base: 8.25" x 8.25" piece of wood wood. (210mm x 210mm) And get yourself some screws.

Press bed: 6" x 11" x ¼" piece of wood (155mm x 300mm) (I like using whiteboard because it is dense and easy to clean)
