I love seeing skills in motion and creative ideas that make things work better! Awesome!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you ..... I’m headed out to the shop now to start upgrading 👍👍😎👍👍
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
👊👊 I ran out and used the mill and machined in the auto-ratcheting recess into both my 1-ton and 2-ton presses. They both work perfect. Also used the file to smooth out all the sharp touch points. Thanks for inspiration. Just what I needed last weekend. 😀
Very cool 😎
I love this video. How to modify a cheap ass harbor freight arbor press using an entire shop of high end power tools instead of just buying another high quality arbor press. Great video
Golly, is there any tool you don't have? As arbor presses go.. that's really pretty! 😊
I'm not yet up to making my own knob, but I'm having trouble finding a control knob with an M8x1.0 thread. They all seem to be M8x1.25.
That one is more difficult to find. Maybe McMaster Carr. Worst case you may have to get one with a hole and put a bolt in it.
Hey that knob looks familiar 👍 Thanks again! Great video 👍
Your handle positioning solution is really smart!
Thank you!
About 10 years ago I just welded a large socket to the end of the pinion shaft and then any ratched can be used as a handle.
Looks like your knob found a nice home 😁
HDPE is a good idea. I always use my mill vise to press pens with some plywood to stop it marking. HDPE would be much better.
Love the tip of the magnet and HDPE on the bottom of the ram. Perfect for my leather work
Nice job 👍
I’m in the process of modifying mine for leather work.
Nice! Are you threading the ram for rivet tools?
Polishing your what? 😂😂
Pimp my Arbor Press edition hahah nice
Looks like a worthwhile improvement to pressin' pens!
Awesome work! The modification to the handle is genius. And the knob has to be my favourite bit. It’s sooo nice 😍
Thank you!
Fasten a piece of plywood to the bottom of the press for more stability. Then if needed, you can clamp the press to the bench with C clamps.
Did you swap out the steel friction bolts for brass ones for any reason other than looks? Nice vid!
Thanks for watching! I like the way they look and they are less likely to mar up the ram since they are softer.
Nice
Very nice shop...tools for everything
I just cant get over how you can make virtually anything! Awesome video!
That’s what makes it so fun!
So beautiful..I need this universal smart edited efficient functional user friendly metal presser right now.
Some great adaptions there.
Thanks Andy!
Hey! I recognize that knob! Looks great.
Thanks!
Thanks for this, that handle mod was genius!
No problem! Glad it was helpful!
Super Awesome!
