Members gunter Posted October 24, 2011 Members Report Posted October 24, 2011 howdy fellow crafters, I would like to make my own shop press for my "future" little shop (workplace). I've seen how to make a hydraulic shop press DIY style, with a "truckjack", but I would like to make myself a smal stamp press for my shop DIY. Is there anyone inhere that knows how to do this? I got an anglegrinder, powersaw and even a dril and weldingstation, but I can't get head nor tails from the press that Tandy sells for like $400. cheers, Gunter Quote Once I moved about like the wind, but now I surrender.(Geronimo) Failure is always an option
