Members cem Posted March 4, 2009 Members Report Posted March 4, 2009 I put up an ad for a Lucris in the market place a few weeks ago, never got a reply though I didn't think I would. So I ended up going with what Bruce suggested as well though I haven't been able to find some metal plate as of yet (the quotes have been in the ridiculous amount and I haven't been able to find anyone who sells offcuts) so I've been using heavy plastic sheet out of an old work cryrovac machine. I'm only clicking 3mm leather though and would probably try harder to find some metal sheet if I was clicking anything thicker. Though I did buy my clicker knives from Lucris and are most happy with them so with the savings of buying the press over a Lucris Mach III, I'm going to be able to buy a heap more leather and get some more clicker knives from them. My press looks exactly the same as Bruce's and has no brand on it either Quote
Contributing Member UKRay Posted March 4, 2009 Author Contributing Member Report Posted March 4, 2009 Anyone in the UK interested in the Lucris M A Series III Clicker Press press should call Alpress on 0141 848 7175 - current price including delivery and VAT is £851 see: www.alpress.co.uk ...and no, I don't work for them, but I have just ordered one!

Members Daggrim Posted March 4, 2009 Members Report Posted March 4, 2009 Dudes! I found a shop just a mile away that carries a whole line of these shop presses at a competitive price, and they're made in the US. So, I see that the dies are rather expensive in the Weaver catalog. Where do you buy them? Just gathering info right now. Doug Quote
