I upgraded from a King Tools press of similar size and much newer vintage. This press is MUCH nicer to use and I like the 6" of travel.
The W/T came from an HVAC shop that didn't use at all. The original paint got stripped down the bare metal. Disassembled, cleaned, and painted its now very smooth again. The original motor was upgraded to a newer 1 hp and the switch mounted in the front for easy access.
