yesteryearforge Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 I use one for pressing out shovel blanks A Dake 1 1/2 b generally used for broaching keyways But ive also been known to give it one hard lick with a splitting maul too instead of going thru the trouble with the arbor press for just one shovel. Usually i make the blanks about ten at a time and shelve them to use as needed. It seems to me making collars would be just the ticket for one.
