    The document describes a portable press that was designed to be lightweight for traveling, able to be used without a tub, and rigid enough to bind books and use a plough. The press weighs only 8 pounds 15 ounces total with the plough. It has oversized rubber knobs, an acme screw, aluminum legs that can be unscrewed to fit in a backpack, and clamps rigidly to a work surface. The included plough is an unusual late 1880s Perick Beck model where the blade moves independently and is angled down so it doesn't mar the text block edge after cutting.

    Portable Press

    I needed a portable press to travel with. The challenge was to make it as light as possible, be able to use it without a tub, and make it rigid enough to back books and use a plough on. The oversize, rubber knobs combined with a 1/2 acme screw can be tightened b! hand, without the need "or a press pin. The aluminum legs can be unscrewed to easil! "it into a backpack, and rigidl! clamp to a work sur"ace "or use. #ith the plough, the entire setup weighs in at $ lbs, % oz.

    The plough on this press is a circa. late 1&8'(s )erick *eck model. It is unusual, in that the blade travels independentl! o" the cheek on the right hand side, and the blade is angled downwards, so that the length o" the blade doesn+t mar the edge o" the te,tblock a"ter a cut is made. To advance the blade, the knob is rolled towards !ou, which is opposite the wa! standard plough works, and takes a little getting used to. It cuts ver! cleanl!.
