Great that you'll get some shop time, Dave!

Itsbig enough for me.....

About 3 ton

All done spare some paint and the builders plate.    The 18" breaker bar is for the Im not asking mode.  Should be easily capable of 3 ton and 4 with the bar...

Oh. My.  For when you want to really put the squish into something!

  Don't put any coal in there - you might end up with diamonds!    Looks great! Nice build.

Yup   20-30 ft lbs is about 3 ton   That'll do it.

Ok good to go.    Got a picture of the added bench mount to the base of.my drill press.  Comes off easy with 4 bolts and hangs on the end of the bench

Clever way to hang it off the drill press!

Parts on the 917 for sure.     I'm in the throws of sorting my shop out and organizing it.    I spent much too much time making prototype parts for work, and it needs a good flush and clean up.   Hope to be back on the 917 next week, but this weekend it all about the organization, and cleaning of what I have and lingering tooling projects that need to be finished up and put away.   This press was one of them
