Two Japanese Shin Nihon Zokei table top etching presses restored. The one on the left was restored for a friend and the one on the right was bought in damaged condition from a school and is restored and for sale
Shin Nihon Zokei etching press restored to it's former glory after rescue from a school where it had suffered abuse, misuse and neglect. This is the second Shin Nihon Zokei press I have restored and just today I got a third Shin Nihon Zokei press brought to me to restore, this one not suffered damage from misuse and abuse but exposure to the elements and long neglect.... nothing missing, nothing damaged just all shabby and surface rust and dust. Seems like I am a Japanese press hospital.... I like fixing up stuff that is well made and useful. Makes me feel useful
