>Hi Lenore:

I do not know if you are currently in the U.S but you could contact Packer
Press, P.O. Box 1773, Belen, New Mexico 87002.  They sell a cinva ram type
press called the M-97 packer press for $1,500 U.S.

International organizations also have info on or sell CINVA ram devices:  

1.  Ecological Designs, Stand 697, Industria Rd., Box 780, Masvingo,
Zimbabwe (Tel: 2479 or 3503) They make the CINVA Ram.

2.  GTZ (The German Development Corporation) P.O. Box 15119, Hellet Street,
Masvingo, Zimbabwe?  Tel:  (139)3041 or 3457.  

3.  ATORID (French relief organization) 93 Central Ave, Harare, Zimbabwe.
Tel:  733431.

I know that many companies make CINVA ram devices.  Try to find a quality
made machine since many brands fail soon after they are put into service.  

I hope that this is of use to you.

Good luck.
