Any feedback on the monkey press? Looks pretty good. Cheap as well. I know you get what you pay for but, it looks darn good.

Anyone got one?

 The Monkey Press is basically a home-made machine. The heat platen is a griddle that you can buy at Walmart. For $20 more, you can buy this:

and there are several other ones on ebay at that price...if you want a low-priced press to get you started.

Monkey Press with shipping: $199.90
Real press with shipping $219.00
