How to build a DIY book press // LARGE A2 Size!

Using some handrails, plywood and steel lead screw I was able to put together a heavy duty, large book press for comparatively cheap! I used my cnc for most of the cuts but they are simple so you could do it with hand tools or a jigsaw and get the same outcome. Part list: 1 x 500mm Trapezoidal Lead Screw - 40mm Diameter (got mine from https://www.accu.co.uk/) 1 x 40mm Inside diameter Lead screw nut (where ever you buy these parts from will usually suggest the right size for you) 1 x Flange bearing (inside diameter same as your lead screw) 4 x M10 Lag Bolts Plywood (i went with 15mm thickness, the base and plate are 18mm thick plywood for more rigidity) 2 x 34mm diameter steel rail (each is 750mm length) 8 x steel rail collars, make sure same diameter as your steel tubing JB Weld On and Gorilla Wood Glue Shout out to ‪@DASBookbinding‬ for the amazing bookbinding channel and resource he has put together! 💚 Support me 💚 Patreon -   / thisdesignedthat   --------- GEAR USED: BEST CAMERA UNDER $1K (US) https://amzn.to/2GpRCIw | (UK) https://amzn.to/2Xg7dOo FAV LOW LIGHT LENS: (US) https://amzn.to/2QT7aJ5 | (UK) https://amzn.to/2v7HbRr FAV MACRO LENS: (US) https://amzn.to/2VcOa6O | (UK) https://amzn.to/2V12pPA GOOD VLOG MIC: (US) https://amzn.to/2Sdr12I | (UK) https://amzn.to/2DfVyHU AMAZING LOW COST LIGHT: (US) https://amzn.to/2ElMJxg | (UK) https://amzn.to/2v8A23u 120CM QUICK SETUP SOFTBOX: (US) https://amzn.to/2IAOBDf | (UK) https://amzn.to/2F6jcrd
