TJ Smith Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Planning a building a press. I noticed that in Jim Batson's book he specs a 2 hp motor, a 5 inch cyl, with a 5.5 gpm pump. is this gonna work? puts out 24 25 tons. TJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Go by Batson's book. It's the current bible on press building. Make sure the whole package goes together as far as frame, cylinder, pump and motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
