Happy Friday FC!
@pxl_jockey The tonnage of the unit will be the limiting factor in pressing so the aim is to have enough pressure on tap to properly press 7g of flower. Of course it will handle less material without issue. Anything over 7g, we recommend to look at the 6 ton bottle jack press or 10 ton stainless steel press. Roger
@dabpress.com will need to provide details on the small press as it's still a prototype as of today.
@Mr. Gweilo 420 The small presses we have developed are all great for apartment living since they can all be stashed easily into a small area like the corner of a closet or inside a suitable container. Just have to be mindful of the heat of the unit prior to stowing!
I am just throwing out a
guess here on timeline and price. I would expect this unit should be available for purchase, assuming all goes as planned with stress testing, within 2 months or less. In past developments we have had to make adjustments to the design which delayed release. The price has to be below $400 otherwise it will be hard for end-users to differentiate the value based on simple visual inspection. Tonnage of press and rating on frame (i.e. weight) aren't obvious to some consumers.
My promise to everyone here. If there is a need for a product, and we can build it, and keep the costs down for the consumer, be assured that we will at least develop a prototype and try to bring the product to market. In fact, as of yesterday we have already looked into the collection side of rosin and began to design a new product.
It is the large group of rosineers on FC that have helped us develop these products based on inquiries, suggestions, submitted designs and drawings. Please understand that we are still a small factory in China and doing our best to grow and better serve the rosin and cannabis community.
