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

Here it is on the OABA site...

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 .
