<VV> Fwd: Hydraulic Press

[Frank DuVal]

I have used and abused my HF 12 ton press since 1983. Still works fine 
and my employees were able to just bent it a little! I got it with free 
shipping at the time. I have no idea if the current models will perform 
as well.

You will need to acquire/make many jigs to do things. Those big socket 
sets HF sells work good as bearing press mandrels (until they break, but 
they replace them free). Buy several different sizes of plates so you 
can stack them for more jigging. Think, but be safe. Nothing like twelve 
tons of pressure to shoot something at you!
