Hello everyone.

Am looking for a flywheel press #5 nor #6, or a hydraulic press.
I am in for piercing some holes in 2 inch square bar, and some regular press work.

Stefan.... John Newman has one for sale in Hamilton, Ontario. Might save yourself some shipping costs.

Here it is on the OABA site...

Who's #5 or #6? My number 2 is several times larger than the new #6's being sold from India.

Indicating that the numbering system is not standardized.

I have a #6 imported fly press from Old World Anvils. It's a great press and I use it a lot, but I think it would be beyond it's capacity to pierce a chunk of 2" solid. Maybe with a really well dressed and lubed tool and the work really hot, it could do it, but I think it would be tough.

Go for a #8 if you've got the $ and put a counterweight on it to help with the effort on the upstroke .
