Rick, If it were me, and I was looking for something inexpensive, I'd be looking for a clean, in good shape, used MPM SPM...heck, they're cheap brand new. Yeah, I know they're semi-auto, but if you can find one that hasn't been beat-up too bad, and has been taken care of at least a little, it's capable of printing 12-mil, and it'll do 15.7-mil all day long. Set-up isn't a big deal, and you can use stencils with 20" X 20" frames in it, so that'll save ya' some change when you buy stencils. -Steve Gregory- ################################################################ TechNet E-Mail Forum provided as a free service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8c ################################################################ To subscribe/unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the body: To subscribe: SUBSCRIBE TechNet <your full name> To unsubscribe: SIGNOFF TechNet ################################################################ Please visit IPC's web site (http://www.ipc.org) "On-Line Services" section for additional information.
