HOW NOT TO INSTALL HEIDELBERG CYLINDER (spectacular style)??? Google, Printing Press @ Glastonbury > Glastonbury Festivals-Areas-Free Press Blog < Watch The clip.> Glastonbury Festival, well upwards of 130,000 Festival Goers being entertained by Many U.S.A. Big Names!!! Much hyped, on site Printing Plant to produce Daily News Sheet??>>Flat Bed Letterpress??? Full Sized Heidelberg Cylinder being installed by ENGLISH!!! Professional??? Movers. Cylinder swinging on long reach Lorry Mounted Crane, Lifted and Stropped to the Swing Arm, (that would be like lifting the heaviest C. & P. or Colt Armoury Press by THE ROLLER HOOKS) Saw this, same thing, same machine, mid 70,s so WE have not progressed too well!!! And that Machine did not run too well EITHER.

I dreamt last night that I was moving a printing press across a beach.

With enough diamond plate and some good tank treads on the forklift…. Shouldn’t be too difficult

It’s the corrosive seawater that you’re moving the press towards that gives me nightmares
