Much jealousy...can't get to war this year...grrr........
In other news, Master Gryffd here in ruantallen has helped me in locating a
copy of "the common press" by Elizabeth Harris which contains complete
drawings and bill of materials for a common press. Though past period, it is
extremely detailed and not at all unlike the earlier presses used in period.
Which brings me to my next question.....How many of you live in Ruantallen?
Sorta thinkin that I might recruit some of my buddies here and any of you
who might have interest to plow through that and "Mechanick excercises on
the whole art of printing" by Moxon and try and build a working press.. I
already have Type for trial purposes, and even a few blocks, so the biggest
hurdle will be to build the press itself and then have a large lump with
which to find new and interesting ways to gather dust..... er, yeah... just
a thought....
