Questions about this tool

Why would I choose a full plate?

Use it when the broader faces need support. A spine clamp leaves more edge access for other operations.

How should I compare it with a center-screw press?

Compare access between the posts and how the clamping pressure is adjusted.

Does the paper stack come with it?

The stack shows how the plates are used. The listing describes the press as the tool.
