Tests and Modifications

We started some tests which makes you realise how many variables effect every part of the printing process. I'm treating it like a scientific experiment (but I would, wouldn't I!). Also, while I'm waiting for a better motor for the printing press, I've taken the opportunity to make some upgrades. These include a clutch mechanism to disconnect the motor from the drive roller, and switches to stop the plate at the end of its travel (in either direction). I'll post some pictures as it all comes together.
