Im looking to build myself a press to fit a screen or two. Nothing too fancy, just something that will work. I have several 2 x3.5's, 2 x 5.5's, and 3.5 x 3.5's laying around that I would like to use up. If anybody could just put up a link to find some basic plans I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

Are those screen sizes? (2x3.5, 2x5.5, 3.5x3.5)

I think he means 2x4s, 2x6s and 4x4s.

2"x4" or 2'x4'?

I'm pretty sure he is talking 2"x4" boards to build a press with, not screens. That's the way I took it anyway.

I have some plans, I can get them to you tomorrow..

here is the press I built using them. I modified it, the plans are for a 4 color 1 station, and I changed it to a 4 color 4 station.
