Re: ASC365 6c6s or Silver Press 6c2s, w/c 1 is best
i think the 6/2 might be a better built and better to use press. the springs on the 6/6 look a little shady. i have the 6/2, and it is built very well.

I have a brother in law who teaches screen printing and off-set printing at a high school in Georgia. He purchased a press much like the 6/6 in this post. His kids had such a hard time registering jobs without the availability of micros. He eventually bought a press with micros. I am also leary of the 6/2 and all the adjustments that must be done with socket wrenches (off contact and screen angle) which seems a bit cumbersome. I don't mean to sound so negative, but set up can take a while with the best equipment, and it seems like set up on one of these could be even tougher.
