BCROB Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 I've come across a few topics and threads that have a list of required parts for a press build and the odd one where press drawings were at one time posted but since deleted....... Im not set on any press in particular yet, many designs out there, more less looking for dimensions and measurements of already ones built if available..... maybe someone has kept there drawings or sketches from their build and wouldnt mind posting......thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John in Oly, WA Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Well, apparently there must not be. Batson's booklet on forge presses has full plans. I started out with the idea of building mine with 4" x 6" rect. tube, but when I went to the scrap yard the only thing suitable was 8" x 8" H-beam. Everything else was either much smaller or much bigger. So I made mine out of that - pictures at the link below. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glenn Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 The forum is great, it is the soft wear issues that cause problems. And yes I do read the forum. I also reply to direct, off line, contacts. If you have a specific issue, please contact me directly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
