I need a set of press plates without breaking the bank. I've seen 10 inch sets up to $300. My price range is more like half that.
The bridge on my press is a bit over 10 inches wide with a 6 or 7 inch gap, so the cheaper 5x5 sets won't work.
I guess I could get a set of parallels to bridge the gap and use a smaller set of plates on top of those. Seeing some parallels on Fee Bay for around $60 and press plates under $100 which would be doable.
Just don't want to wind up with cast Chinesium plates, I already busted a set of them.
Sources/Suggestions?
