Our first print: Some thank you cards for the friends and family who helped us move Old Tom!
Some of our type laid out correctly in the Hamilton case.
Finally got the type properly locked up in the chase.
Our lock-up uses a combination of metal and wood furniture along with type that came from a printer located in Calgary in the mid-1970s.
This type all needs to get sorted...
Removing some of the surface rust from Old Tom, our 1913 Chandler & Price New Series Platen Press. There's a lot still left to do!
Old Tom is in position. Luke is removing a defunct motor from the side. The plan is eventually to install a treadle.
Jeff is not doing anything useful here other than taking a selfie next to hardworking Luke and Old Tom.
Picking up Old Tom from the seller. This ended up being a lot more straightforward than we had thought. Still hard, but grateful for help!
Old Tom is loaded on the trailer. Thank you friends and family for your help!
