http://www.foodrecap.net/wp-content/upl ... achine.pdf I don't know if this has been sent to the forum before . Copy and paste to your browser. Its full details of how to build a crown bench capper for the more mechanical minded ! Looks a nice bit of kit.

Wow, most people just mount the crimping cup from their broken capper into a drill press!

I stuck mine on a bit of hinged wood and it does the job. I notice you are from Todmorden. We always make an annual pilgrimage across the border to Grandma Pollards chippy and Gordon Riggs . I notice you have a micro brewery there now as well. Must pay a call.

Bare Arts? It's good, but the ales tend to be a bit on the strong side, and the decor will sear your retina.
