Comments:
purchased at auction for $20 with workbench which I sold to a guy at the auction for $20 so it was free!

It was originally dk. green, I took it apart and sandblasted it and re-painted red. It works surprisingly well for being a screww press, It has pressed everything I have tried, spindles, bearings, etc. I like the smaller size and lightweight, a nice compromise between an arbor press and a hydraulic press. I am surprised these are not more popular.

I have made a few tools for it to bend metal and make brackets and misc.
