Peebles Press

[susbees]

Can anyone point me to a picture, please...?

There was me thinking that a copy of the Peebleshire Advertiser had made its way to you .... but no, sorry, I don't know of such a thing.

That'll teach me to stick things in the exam section! Cramming for module 2 (&7 but following my lack of certainty on the current NZ thread think I'm nuts!). Two things come up "perforextractor" which I can find no pic of and is described as a "rolling pin with pins" and most google refs seem linked....so is that a longer version of the little plastic or metal handheld heather rollers? And a "Peebles press" which is supposedly hinged pieces of wood cf the usual apple-press or car-jack types. I have a visual memory...hence the need for pics...

I'm sure you must have found this article about the original Peebles press - very ornate and lovely, but not the Peebles press you want to see. You might find this link to David Heaf's honey press interesting - but perhaps also not quite what you had in mind.
