chapelstone Report post Posted June 29, 2017 Looking to buy a shop press to convert to a clicker. Most of the conversions I have seen on here are 20 ton. I am using 2-10oz leather and cramped for space. Is the 6 ton table top to small? Which is best 6,12 or 20 ton? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JLSleather Report post Posted June 29, 2017 The pressure required is dependent on the length of the cut (bigger dies take more tonnage). Most of us who have these presses would be fine with the 12 ton .. but we got teh 20 because it was the same price (or sometimes less). Not pretty, but true Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
glamb Report post Posted June 29, 2017 Search real hard on here as someone had a press he was trying to sell. I believe he was on the east coast. He was moving and not wanting to take the press with him. It was all setup to use as a clicker. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chapelstone Report post Posted June 29, 2017 Thanks, I found it, it was a real good price. But it was too far away. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
