We are proud to announce the launch of the new ILAB website!



www.ilab.org <http://www.ilab.org/>



The old website has served its purpose for some years and a new design was
necessary to keep up with today's standards. The new design and layout is
the result of much collaboration between the ILAB committees, its affiliates
and the webmaster. The main differences with the old website are the
attractive new design, the layout, a more accessible menu structure and some
new useful features.



Visitors searching for books will benefit from the much improved integrated
search system. The ILAB database holds a fine collection of over 4 million
books, maps, prints and autographs. The ILAB books database is made
accessible via the search form in the menu, as well as with the advanced
search form. Visitors can register themselves for a password protected
account. Registered visitors can maintain their contact information, their
wants list and their wish lists. The contact information is used for faster
checkout when ordering books through the integrated secure shopping cart.
Wants are used for automated notification of new additions to the ILAB books
database that correspond with the visitor's individual areas of interest.
Items of interest can be placed in a personal 'wish list', which can be
accessed at a later time for inquiring and ordering. French and German
speaking visitors can easily select their language by pressing the
corresponding flag in the top menu.



ILAB booksellers will enjoy the easier to use administrative pages for
maintaining their contact information, uploading inventory to the ILAB
database and looking into shopping cart orders.



The ILAB federates 20 national associations worldwide, speaking for over
2000 affiliated booksellers. The ILAB stands for integrity, guarantee and
professionalism. We hope you will find that these qualities are reflected in
the new website.

Hello all!
Can anybody provide information on this equipment:
Markem 552DE Photopolymer Platemaker

As I've posted before, I'm interested in purchasing a second hand
photopolymer platemaker to get started on the letterpress business and
I found this machine selling for 4,000 $

Your opinions would be highly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi, I've recently acquired two presses (12x18 Heidelberg platen and 12x18 C&P
NS).  Both
are three phase powered and were hardwired into the building of the printing
company I
purchased them from .  They will soon be moved into another building with only
single
phase power.  Any suggestions on how to get these machines running?  (A few have
suggested investing in a costly Temco 3 phase converter, others have advised
replacing
the motors to single phase.)  Any suggestions or advice would greatly be
appreciated!
Much thanks, Mable

I dodged that bullet when I bought my Vertical, but from what I found
when I thought I might have to convert was that a phase converter was
cheaper than buying a new motor. I did a little window shopping at
www.grainger.com for phase converters and I talked with an
electrician friend of mine who thought that a converter would be a
less expensive way to go. Since my motor turned out to be single
phase I didn't have to worry about it. I would call around to
industrial supply houses and get their recommendations.

Hope this helps some, good luck. Kevin.

Hi Mable,

In my opinion, the simplest solution would be to find two used
single phase motors with the same shaft size so you can use your
existing variable speed pulleys. Keep or sell the 3p motors.

I had the same problem when installing my Heidelberg 10×15 platen in the
garage. Originally I tried with a phase converter—although a very cheap one, I
confess. At first, it did well: I could use the variable speed pulley and so
one. But after getting the press really in action (let say running for about an
hour and a half), all of a sudden the atmosphere became foggy and the stank of
burned rubber penetrated the house. Obviously the isolation material around the
copper wire inside the motor had suffered too much heat and had started melting.
In my experience a phase converter is no option.

I also enquired after 3 phase distribution. The electricity provider charged
almost the cost of a more expensive phase converter. If you need the 3 phase for
only one machine, it makes of course more sense to have a (proper!) converter,
which you can move along with your press in case you would ever need to move. In
your case, with two machines, it is perhaps interesting to have 3 phase
distributed at your home.

In my case the most elegant and cheapest solution was to buy a brand new single
phase motor with the same specifications, i.e. 1,5 A (about 120 euros). My
Heidelberg windmill has been running perfectly well with this little upgrade,
although from an aesthetical point of view I preferred the stout black A.C.E.C.

(In case you would replace the motor, make sure you exactly mark what the
original position was: this is of rather great importance as regards the belt
which connects the motor with the flywheel.)

Hi Mable,
     Mike's suggestion is probably the cheapest way to go unless you can find a
used but reliable converter.
Word of warning on replacement motors -- be sure that the mounting dimensions,
and the height from base to shaft center line, match or can be readily adapted.
Newer motors of the same Horsepower are often physically smaller.  If you have
to have a special mount/adapter made that can easily cost more than the motor.

I have been using a Phase-A-Matic Converter wired into
a secondary motor which supplies temporary voltage on
startup.

It certainly had to be wired by an electrician and
mine cost 250.00 for wiring and pahse converter but
unfortunately the motors were about 300.00 ea.

Each Vertical I have and my folder with a right angle
run off this setup with the only exception being for
the folder the secondary motor is a 5 H.P. The Miehle
secondary motors are 3 H.P.

Hope this helps.

Does anyone know if Paul Hayden Duensing's 16th Century Roman was
digitized under a different name? I do have a very bad rendition of it
called Dominicus but I'm looking for a more exacting replication.

Any leads would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
A year ago I had to buy a 3 phase converter for my Heidelberg GTO. I got a
very small transitor unit from speedco for a mere $400.00 cdn. It's a small
box that mounts on the wall, about 6 inches square. The conversion is done
with transistors etc so the unit does not put out any noise or heat. I was
doubtful about  the unit when I first purchased it as I had only seen big
mechanical converters more around the $2000 mark.
It has worked flawlessly for a year, and has had many long hard shifts. The
unit is programable as well so you can adjust the speed in which in comes up
to power and how it shuts down. All original wiring and safeties remain
intact.
If and when I get another piece of three phase  equipment I wouldn't
hesitate to buy another one of these units.

You could try searching on "Rustica" which seems to have been the original
name of the fount.

I'm going through the same thing, i have a 3 phase motor on my Vandercook 32-28

Thank you for all the great suggestions and advice!  It's nice to know
I have a few options.  Take care, Mable

I put a single-phase motor on a 10 x 15 windmill, but I find it doesn't
have the power that the three-phase motors do.  The speed runs
considerably slower than the figure on the speed control would indicate,
and I find that it overheats when I run it too fast with a heavy forme,
and pops the breaker built in to the on-off switch.  So I just slow it
down.  It's only a problem on long runs with lots of printing area.

I don't have any experience with phase converters, but if I were to do
it again I'd get the converter.  Or, if you're in it for the long haul,
get the electrical service upgrade.

That's a wonderful font. I've been helping out at Don Emblen's Clamshell Press
in
Santa Rosa, and discovered he had a case of it in 18-pt. It has all the
logotypes &
ligatures - things like the little semi-tilde over a vowel that indicates an "n"
is hidden.
Even the unused letterfaces look 'distressed', as they say in furniture
finishing. The
result is like a facsimile. I used it in a book I'm doing but had to have a
plate made of
it after reducing the text to 12-pt.....I checked the usual internet sources &
didn't find
anyone who had more of that font.

None of this answers your question about digital sources...but I'm still very
interested
in acquiring the metal type if anyone knows of a source...

Hi Gerald,
I could hand set it for you and send a proof.

Rustica and Sixteenth Century Roman are two different faces,  both made into
metal type by Paul Hayden Duensing -- Rustica based on early  Roman lettering,
and 16th Century made from a partial set of antique mats that  Paul Duensing
found in Italy.  16th Century has a rough quality similar to  Caslon Antique,
which was originally sold by BB&S under the name Fifteenth  Century.

I have not been able to find a copy of Dominicus to compare  with the metal
type. I'd love more info on this digital version.

Looks like our mutual information is leap frogging.

If the new publisher needs a repro I will certainly send them your way.

The Dominicus is from Foster & Horton. Don't know if they are still
around but they were head quartered in Santa Barbara in the early 90s.
Basically I think they tried to adjust it for the digital realm
(thickening letterforms, cleaning up some of the roughness, adjusting
the baseline) and in doing so tossed a great deal of its original funk
and beauty.

Thanks, but Paul's Rustica and his Sixteenth Century Roman were two
completely different faces. The former is a face based on an early
manuscript hand, the latter was literally based on a 16th century
roman that Paul had found (the actual punches or matrices).

Paul never cast much of this stuff as he would just announce the
casting and base the amount on the orders that came in. I bought
several fonts of the Sixteenth Century Roman at the time, and
subsequently used it for a number of projects including the titling
throughout a book. Eventually the metal type was sold off. As it turns
out, the book may be reprinted and may require a change. Thus the search.

I was thinking Paul Lloyd, Manfred Klein, Deiter Speffmann et al would
have made a digital replication. I try to pick up every historical
font these folks do, but that is also part of the problem as their
type output is massive and they commonly do not use the original
appellation.

Hopefully I still have a specimen around somewhere and can reconstruct
what I need from that.

The single phase motor is 2 hp, the three phase one was 1-1/2.  I had a
press mechanic source it for me, and assume he knew what he was doing.
Maybe bigger motors require other kinds of monkeying around to make them
fit...

I saved my three-phase motor, and I'm looking forward to the day I can
put it back on.
