How to make a plant presser?
I'm taking a college class, Dendrology, that requires us to press 50 plants. I need to make a plant presser since I saw you could buy ones online already made but there are super expensive.
I know where I can get newspaper and rope to tie it for free.
Where can I find the wood and cardboard for a cheap price?
Thank you.
Update:& also what type of wood would work best for it? I have to press plants no bigger than 8 1/2 by 11 in.

I had always placed the flowers, leaves, etc. between the pages of an old book, and stacked other books, bricks, or some other heavy object on top of it.
