    I too have recently bought a GW wheel press. Over on Western Thunder it has recently been reported that one member has trouble getting a satisfactory result as the press seems to make contact with the wheel boss rather than the wheel rim – a solution being to add plastikard packing pieces. Thinking about it a bit more, I’ve also heard of the GW wheel-puller separating the rim from the centre, so maybe the packing pieces should not bear the weight of the press… Have any EMGS members encountered similar? Cheers.
