I just found out about an old pressing plant here in the UK that was called Orlake. they pressed lots of famous things, and looked like a great plant.

AussieOzbourne posted a vid about them, and all i can find out about them is that they ran Toolex Presses, and went into administration in 2007, and the premises were demolished.

I wonder what happened to the equipment? did it all get sold to European plants? Did they scrap it? I hope it's not just sat somewhere!
