  • This arbor press was in bad shape. It was so rusty it wouldn't work and it was missing parts. In this video I cleaned, stripped repainted and replaced the missing parts to get this arbor press back to working order.

    *Works perfectly for my use as a heated press **MyBest.Tools** Space between the ram jack and the base is a little tight. Make sure you set the ram jack arm so that it's in a position for you to get maximum leverage on whatever you're pressing. You may have to unbolt the front plate of the press and realign the ram in the teeth so that the arm is not at an awkward angle when fully cranked down.Other than aligning the ram in the teeth with the crank arm this .5 ton arbor press comes out of the box pretty much ready to use.*

    Excellent video. I am rehabbing a Dake #1. Your video is on point with what I am trying to do. Thank you for the ideas and methods. What do you think a our a hole in bottom of ram to allow for a die. Set screw in side to hold die in place. Ram is 1 1/4” so thinking 3/8 hole. I worry that it might weaken the ram. Again many thanks.

      Mine already has that feature. It actually had a pinch pin installed when I brought it home. Im sure you could get away with a 3/8" hole. Thanks for watching!

    How you decided what size of the table to be? Thickness?

    I think I'd have drilled it and pressed a pin in so fair play. I wondered if you would part it off 😂

      I wanted to part off the table but I don't have a parting tool big enough. If you're talking about the knurled knob I almost forgot to file the chamfers, I came close to parting it all the way off

      @@GreenridgeMetalWorks I think he meant the pin under the anvil. Sounds to me like he would face off the stock on the lathe, drill a blind hole and use a pin instead of removing all that steel to form the anvil pin. But looks like you have plenty of metal and it makes for a unique one-piece anvil.

    might wanna think about finding a stronger paint stripper but other then that it looks great

      Yeah that stripper sucks. Ive had good luck with Klean Strip, its a NON-METHYLENE product. But John is right, get Methylene if its available and you wont have that issue.....

      It doesn't have a makers mark but I think it's the same brand that Jet sells. It's a one ton press. Thanks for watching 😊
