Nice Looking press you have.
That is a great idea with the scale with a pointer. That would definatly be handy when using a press brake. That press, is it a complete fabbed up job, or available some where? I seen many presses, but that one looks sweet.
Got anymore pics of that? And thanks for the scale and pointer tip :cool:

I built it. Heres another shot , I just added the winch to lift the table. You can see the brake on the floor. I'll have to take some pics of it

Thats a lovely bit of kit Bob.
Did you make the dovetail from scratch? I would love to see some more detail of that, and how you went about it.

Cheers Phil

I gotta get me some dovetail cutters.

The shop press looks awesome. The roller bearings on the top slide really caught my eye. I might just have to do that to my cheapie HF press.:))
