My Golding wants Another Chase!

I am looking for another chase for my Golding Official #12 Map Press. Please contact me if you have one you are willing to part with or know of someone. For those not familiar the chase is considered a 8x12, but is actually a tad larger than that.
Thanks.

You should be able to modify a Chandler & Price 8x12 chase to fit this press by grinding the outside edge to fit. If you took the C&P chase and your original to a machine shop with instructions it should be rather easy for them.

I picked up a #12 Map Press for a friend that was set up in this way. The original Golding chase had inner dimensions measuring 9x12, but 8x12 would still be good for a chase to lock up a photopolymer plate base.
