najram2007 Report post Posted August 23, 2013 Thanks for all this priceless information guys! I didn't end up buying the mechanical clicker. I was a bit late in making my mind up on buying it and it was sold to someone else. That's how it goes sometimes. It would've been a great edition to the workshop but my production is low at this stage and didn't really need it. And also I will be moving in the near future and was concerned about moving it around too often. For the time being I will invest in converting a 20ton hydraulic shop press for small runs and use a friends clicker for bigger runs. I did have a look at an Italian made clicker last week that was for sale which was in great working order. I did enquire about getting a converter installed and it will cost more than the machine it self !! and I don't have the experience and know-how to use all this amazing info to do it my self. I someday hope to use it in the near future. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geneva Report post Posted August 24, 2013 Good going. It will make your shop. There are some parts missing I have enclosed a photo of what is missing from the cutting table. I hope the photo is large enough to see the missing parts. There is a steel frame around the backing board that is bolted to the table also. There is a backing board on your's but it is made of plywood and lacking the steel frame and hold down parts. You can turn the machine into single phase without to much trouble. It maybe easier said than done but all you need is a single phase motor and an electrican to rewire it. Good luck to you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
