where to get Jim Batson's hydraulic forging press manual

Featured Replies

When I search fro Jim Batson's "manual for hydraulic forging presses" book (wrong title?) I seem to only find web pages that are very old. Anybody know where one can actually be bought now in Jan 2010?

thx

Contact "rthibeau" (on this site), he just finshed a press build using that book. He should have current purchase info.
I sure hope you post plans as nice as your anvil stand plans... I'm looking to build a press too :D

I bought my copy of Jim Batson's "How to Build a Hydraulic Forging Press" through Don Fogg's website. The link: http://www.dfoggknives.com/hydralic.htm

Search AbeBooks and AddAll on Google for used copies. I buy pretty much all my used books from those sites.
