FAG Control 839
Xavier Zwiller on the FAG Control 839 ‹I bought this press in 2013 from some passionated typographers in a close region from Auvergne (FR). These people had problems to install the press in their studio so it lay dismantled in storage. I hired a transporter and it took me quite some time to properly install the press and get it working. Now it is a real pleasure to print some posters on it!›
