Half-size The Ideal Press?

Hamada is one press manufacturer that does not make a half-size press—but it gets pretty close.

"There are a lot of players in the half-size market and only a limited number in the 20˝ market," says Mike Dighton, Hamada's vice-president of marketing and customer service. "We are concentrating on our core customers, who have always been the shops with 15 to 20 employees or fewer."
