My gf just got me the same press for my birthday cause she knew I was bummed I didn’t win anything from the raffle lol.
I pressed some grim glue and it was low yielding as well.
Couldn’t quite get the pressure right as u can adjust the length of top plate before moving the lever but when it “locks” down you can only release pressure. Very hard and impractical to tighten the nut to increase pressure while it’s locked down.
Feel like it’s just “stuck” between the plates, tried doing a directional fold for one press, didn’t notice much of a difference.
