Happy to correspond and find you what you need.A “Wayzgoose” is a traditional celebration of printers going back to the 16th Century. I have plenty available and can absolutely provide you with something to help you kill time during Covid-19!!! Please reach out to me over phone/text/email. Pickup would of course, be free.Īlso please note that we have 100’s of presses so just because I haven’t physically listed a press package on the site doesn’t mean I don’t have anything available. That said, we strive very hard to minimize shipping/handling costs to keep budgets in line. The press is located in Indianapolis and distance increases cost. Shipping in continental US is estimated at $75 -150 or less depending on location. I am happy to ship this press internationally, price TBD depending on location. Please note that S/H costs will be quoted after the purchase and are not included in the package price. It is a workhorse and a dream to operate for smaller runs (100-500). A great number of business print shops looked to the Pilot for their tabletop press. This press is ready to rock upon arrival-no components to search for to make this complete-it is ready for work and display. This package includes a chase–and-as always!–our thorough starter’s kit which you can see below (a $200 value):Ī note about the C&P Pilot: This press is widely regarded by users as the finest tabletop press available in the world for several reasons: The maker, it’s chase size, and it’s operation.
Press was oiled, platen set to print/pack height, and all functions of press validated as working exactly as they should New, high quality rubber rollers installed All working surfaces and interfaces were burnished to clean metal All painted parts were significantly brightened revealing very good factory paint Inspection, repair and/or replacement of any missing, non-working parts to near or better than new condition
