    I think I heard about this auction site from Wolf. At any rate I signed on and now get these notifications from them when they have auctions of interest to me. Just got this today:



    "Buffalo Schools Spring Blowout Sale

    Shop Machinery, Heidelberg Printing Press, you name it baby!!!

    I went and looked at their stuff a long time ago and found several item of interest. Only problem is they wanted everything out in 4 hours after close of auction. I was working full time and that wasn't possible.

    Thank you to our families of soldiers, many of whom have given so much more then the rest of us for the Freedom we enjoy.

    It is true, there is nothing free about freedom, don't be so quick to give it away.

    I'm curious to see what the Heidelberg goes for - right now it's up to 2 grand, and I would be surprised if it doesn't top 3500 or higher. They're supposedly a fantastic press. Heavy, very consistant, and every adjustment under the sun.

    Me, I did some printing in Jr. Highschool on(IIRC)platen letter presses, with us carving up rubberized sheets to do printing on an offset press. Would like to find a cheap one, and then make some plates using chemical milling.. Hmm, they're fairly cheap on Ebay...
