imagedude Posted December 8, 2007 Posted December 8, 2007 Here's me next to my size 10 press. It weighs 2000lb. The fly arm that I'm holding is from a size 6 press. Below is a size 8 bar press that I bought for a pound ($2). Quote

stretch Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 Here is the press i use. It is made in India and 10 ton. i put a lot handles in for grabbing in a hurry when working and the brake i put on it can be flipped with my thumb in a hurry. Just have to keep my head down, only got clipped once when i was distracted, never twice. Quote
imagedude Posted June 30, 2008 Author Posted June 30, 2008 Finally moved the press into position today, it's only taken 3 years!! Quote
Jmercier Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 *sighs wistfully* My flypress is a small one =P It's still nice for slitting and stuff, but i need to make more tools for it. Of course, by small one, it weighs 600+lbs including the base still..http://www.tharkis.com/images/shop/flypress.jpg Quote
imagedude Posted July 1, 2008 Author Posted July 1, 2008 Smaller presses are much nicer to use, presses larger than size 6 are really designed for 2 man operation. Quote
