Director / Assistant Director's comments and rehearsal shots of Leitheatre's May 2014 production at the Studio, Festival Theatre, Edinburgh
Really useful intro - thank you for taking the time to put this into a video ! I wondered, you mention that you had bought new rollers that are fitted with the original runners from the press. I have the original runners for my machine and wanted to use them instead of new runners if possible. Is there a specific technique for combing new rollers to old runners? Or is it a fairly obvious and easy thing to do? I'm waiting on my new rollers to arrive so I'm asking ahead of time :) Anyway thanks again!
Thank you for your appreciative comments, and pleased that you found the video helpful. With all Adanas the rollers are mounted on a spindle core which sticks out beyond the rubber or polymer roller at either end, and the runners just slip onto the spindle and are held on with a grubscrew. The 5x3 in the video is an early model so the runners are metal - you can see them if you pause the video at 5:10 - but the ones on my more modern 8x5 and HQ are nylon / plastic. They are stepped with two different diameters to allow for adjustment if the rollers shrink a bit. So your old runners will do fine - all you need to do to take them off the old rollers is to loosen the little screw (it might be caked up with ink) and pull them off.
Super useful, helpful & motivating! I bought an Adana 8x5 off eBay & am just beginning to learn how to make it print. The machine came without type so I have made some with my 3d printer & the software Fusion360. I am still making beginners errors, but things are slowly getting better & it is a joy to look at the slow progress with so far the latest being better than the previous. Thank you for sharing your expertise!
Thank you for your comments. Pleased that you found it useful.
Is this Professor Michael Twyman, my old Head of Department at Reading University?
Afraid not! Though Prof Twyman is an amazing guy and something of a legend in the typographic / design community.
This is not a High Speed 2, it was marketed as the Number 2 having the lugs on the sides. Because the press pivots forward the fixings were changed to holes at the back and front and H/S 2 put in the casting.
Thank you, Paul. I wasn't aware that the HS2 designation wasn't applied to the very first model as there's no lettering cast into its base. I can see why the positions of the holding down screw holes were soon moved to front and back, as it would make the press more stable in use. PS excellent work that you and the crew are doing at the Frogmore Paper Mill!
You are missing the rubber pad that goes on the back of the platen to stop the platen striking the handle. A foam sticky pad does the job.
Thank you. Very helpful tip.
I just bought one of these off eBay and this was very helpful. Thanks!
Pleased that it's helped. The reason I made the video in the first place was that, although there's lots of videos featuring Adana machines, I couldn't find a clear and straightforward step-by-step "how to" for fettling up and using an old machine.
Thank you:)))
You're welcome!
