QuikNip Book Press

S695. QuikNip Book Press.

November 2022: Due to wood supply and production, our vendor has put a pause on processing orders for their book presses. This includes the S489 Small Book Press and S490 Large Book Press. If you would like to be notified when they are available again please email info@johnnealbooks.com.

Our largest book press has a workspace of 11.5" x 16" between the posts. Delivers 2000 lbs. of pressure. The QuikNip Book Press uses the same screw as our large Book Press. The dimensions were chosen to allow for casing in, pressing signatures before sewing, and pressing the books after gluing up the spine. The press is ideal for studio work as well as for the serious home binder. It is made from Baltic birch, handcrafted, fully assembled and maintenance-free. Its elegant design was developed in consultation with Peter Verheyen. He is a professional bookbinder and conservator in Syracuse, NY. Hand-Lettering Lessons Made in USA. Retail $449.00. "I have finally put the book press together and am thoroughly enjoying using the real thing instead of my old improvised set up." -- Virginia P, Australia (This book press had to be partly disassembled for shipping overseas. This book press is delivered fully assembled in its basic form to customers in the USA. To use the extensions, you will have to partly disassemble the press. Instructions are included.)
