[QUOTE="RSteve, post: 568097, member: 164"] [SIZE=5]Well, I have learned a lesson, the hard way. This morning I attempted to remove a tightly compressed 7.2 oz cake from the noodle press. The interior liner of the press came out with the roll tightly compressed inside. I had to literally dig the tobacco out in chunks with a screw driver. In order to extricate the liner from the press, I had to unscrew the handle. With a hammer and wood block, I was able to pound the liner back into the press. I think the tobacco had too much moisture when it was put into the press. I reassembled the press and rubbed out the tobacco, then added a significant amount of drier tobacco. I've put tobacco back into the press and reduced the cranking pressure. It'll go untouched for several days. In the future, I'll just use[B] 4 oz[/B] of tobacco, no more.
