Lyman Paper Padding Press

pinshape

Summary I invented this press back in 2008. Applied for a patent and it was issued in September 2009. I have since let the patent expire. I have sold near 1000 presses in the last 8 years and have discontinued making and selling them because of age. The last model is V4 and it sold on eBay for $85, free shipping in the US. The video shows how I made the Press and how to use it to pad stacks of paper. It can pad up to 1000 sheets of 20 lb paper and up to 11 inches wide. I can pad a stack of paper in 4 minutes. Not including the adhesive drying time.
