I finally finished repairing the Common Press model that I bought on eBay. When I purchased it there were some pieces missing and it was assembled incorrectly. Actually it was designed incorrectly with the frame being reversed. The leg to the far left was turned to the right and intruded into the space where a printer would stand. When I looked up pictures of the same model on the internet this was the way all were assembled, so I assumed it was perhaps the design of a press I was unfamiliar with. That part was broken loose from the rest of the press and I even glued it that way at first, but became less and less happy with it and decided to break it loose and reverse it to be assembled as shown. The finish on it is inconsistent, but rather than restore it fully by removing the finish and starting over I decided I liked the “used” look instead. I did much of the retouching and the staining of the new parts I added with a brown magic marker which I even described to the Scrollsaw Club members as cheating, but the result worked in the end, I think. I reversed the screw a bit so that it doesn’t actually press on the tympan, but there was some damage present because the small range of motion prevented it from being fully withdrawn. The last part was to tie the strings to facilitate cranking the bed back and forth.
