Replace it with a Chinese made replica. Can also make a quick buck on the commission.

It can be repaired. Like so many artifacts that are damaged this too can be repaired. One mus keep in mind that Michelangelo''s
DAVID was severely damaged when the arm holding the satchel broke off and Michelangelo repaired it. Same goes for the Pieta which a lunatic destroyed her nose or the Sigirya frescoes that also were damaged by another lunatic. All have been restored and the same can be said of this historic printing press.

Modern monks are not interested in old stuff. They have lap tops and printers.
