[Corjack]

A bit long, but I felt it fairly interesting. [BBvideo=560,315]https://youtu.be/TqcYI0G2hqM[/BBvideo]

Gee you post some interesting reviews Corjack.
I still love that Prazi press..

I just purchased a PraziPress!! Awaiting the German governments export permit - which Thomas tells me should be a couple more weeks off, I can not wait to get the bloody thing!

I'll do my best to review it, but I think the man GavinToobe has done a pretty good job of pointing out it features... Mine will likely be subjective to how i see it and use it, but I'll get some pretty pictures up at the very least!!

Ever since seeing Corjack’s post this press has really left a impression on me...
So much so, that a long long time ago I ordered one.
This week I finally got export permission from the German government and have finally been advised it will be sent next week. How long it takes to arrive is another question.
I really appreciate fine engineering to a great degree, and I cannot wait to use this press...
How have you found yours Aussiegunnut?

I have to say these things take ages to get, BUT Thomas Turban is a truly good guy to deal with.

Well, it finally turned up this morning.
What a beast of a press, the dimensions of everything are huge. It looks extremely well made and finished.
It comes with everything, even the tools to put it together, and even the supplied spanners are excellent quality.
I cannot wait to give this thing a workout.

Well I have mounted it , and it was a bit of a challenge.
Anyway a couple of things I noticed already.
The first is, it is exceptionally smooth in operation. The lever is very thick and long, so I assume the leverage is quite powerful. You do not need to work it hard, it’s quite relaxing actually.
The second thing I noticed, is that it requires an extremely solid bench , it causes mine to flex a bit, not bad but just a bit.
Anyway next thing is to do some sizeing and see how it goes.

Looks like a sturdy unit nice.
Where did you get the stand it’s on ?

I’m about to build a new solid kDf17 bench in the study where I will be reloading so would like to get a stand and have neat reinforced holes
