Nice restoration job John. I have a Servex 30tn press, a baby brother to yours and it was good to see the ram stripped down. Fortunately mine still has the original red paintwork and is in great condition considering its age. In my hobby shop, I use it quite a lot for all sorts of jobs; it’s such a versatile piece of gear. I’m sure you will find lots of jobs to use yours on to. Before the modern Enerpac presses, I think Servex were the Rolls Royce of Australian presses.
Hey John, I always envied the 30t Servex that they had at Uni when I went which is why I was so excited to get this one. I didn't think it this one would be too much bigger but boy was I wrong. When I originally got it I searched to see if I could find any videos of one being stripped down with no luck so I hope this helps someone in the future. Cheers.
Awesome restoration John and I like the yellow. I restored a Wade hydraulic press, made in Australia, and it was dark blue when I got it but guess what colour I painted it? Yellow😂. Cheers, Stuart. Canberra.
Hey, John! Good to see another project post (Gordon, your erstwhile neighbour). As for the lack of music - I prefer it. Music, especially the *wrong* music, is distracting.
Great practical restoration. How could I not subscribe. Subbed here!
Nice work!
Very nice job, it had some problems but you sorted them out and it will now last for years.🇦🇺
Great video mate. You’ve done a ripper job!
Excelent job. Those things are indeed meant to last more than a lifetime.. Cheers!
I have Servex press in my home workshop don’t use it a lot but when I don’t it is awesome. When we used to make stuff Aussie quality.

Thanks mate, Got plenty of stuff I'm working on but just trying to keep the videos to things that I reckon other people would find interesting.
