Mounting Nexus

I have a Nexus press on the way and am looking at my options for mounting it to my press.

Currently I use a Inline Fabrication quick change setup for my presses.

Was curious if anyone has had any experience with using a Nexus on a Inline Fabrication Quick Change Mount (I use a Jr. Stand) versus either their Quick Change Flush Mount or their dedicated bench plate? Was curious which method was found to provide the most rigid mounting.

Thanks

I have a flush mount on one bench and a riser on another. Both are very rigid and work great. I say use the one that puts the press at the most comfortable height and you'll be happy.

I use the 4" tall ultramount with the quick change plate. It is solid as a rock. No issues. I've used a variety of presses over the years. The Nexus is awesome. I hope you enjoy it.

I suppose that you have already resolved the matter but for what it is worth, I used the flat mounting plate that Inline makes and then a thin piece of rubber non-slip underneath so that when I clamp it to my desk with a couple of Pony clamps it does not move. Once done, I can remove it from my desk {heavy duty ex-office one} that is also my computer desk as well.
I have a Bonanza {Foster now makes them with their name on them} that is mounted on 1" ply with a steel plate drilled and tapped for the same reason, so that it is removable after use and only held down with a clamp. As I no longer have access to the machine shop that I did the original base for the Co-Ax the Inline was the easy button and at $44, a bargain for a finished ready to go quality product.
