I highly recommend a heated press off of Amazon for $25-$30 like this (which is the one that I have). You just put in the dough in balls and press down and it cooks the tortillas as you press resulting in a softer, springier tortilla. I realize it's budget food, but mine has lasted two years and is still going strong.
Also, we have a similar recipe, but make 16 tortillas with 2 1/4 cups of flour, 1/3 c of veg oil, 3/4 c water and salt to taste. After it's all mixed together, you break the dough in half and then do it again with each piece until you have 16 dough balls of roughly the same size.
You have to get an electric tortilla press. You can find them on amazon listed also under roti makers. This is the press I got and it works great. A lot of the reviews will complain about it not working well, but that's because they don't know how to make tortillas. The flour ones I make start out as a dough, not a batter, and the press only partially cooks them. You have to finish them all the way on something else. I use an electric griddle set as hot as it will go to cook 5 or 6 at once in a minute or two.
