1 ton arbor press steel plates

[Scriptkrewe]

I had gotten a 1 ton arbor press and searched high and low locally for some steel plates to use it as a clicker press. The one I found on Etsy were just to expensive in my book. So I searched Amazon and found a set of 2 6 X 6 X 1/4 plates for $22. I got them today and really like them. Rounded corners and the whole 9 yards.

Good job

Invert the top plate every 6 presses or so. You'll find the press dishes the plate and inverting it before it gets too bad sends it dishing in the opposite direction

I buy steel and aluminium off cuts which are sold on ebay. I get them relatively cheaply

Thanks for the tip @fredk. I will remember to do that.
