    I would love for you to walk through how you made it, and where you got the dies.

      I got the Eaton Coll-O-Crimp collet, die ring, and yellow crimp ring from www.lawsonproducts.com The Eaton Coll-O-Crimp is a very popular crimper and you might be able to find the dies used. The base is very simple, a base plate with a hole and guide pins. The pusher, the top part is a piece of schedule 40 pipe with a section cut out of it (so you can see what you're doing) attached to a top plate which the press pushes on. I didn't film making the base, maybe I can do a follow up on how I made it.

      I would love to purchase a pre made kit from you.

      Hi Matt, unfortunately I do not make these to sell. I would think any local welding shop could make one for you. Here is a link to the video on how I made it: ruclips.net/video/wFuvEcbwLrU/видео.html

    Any details, what does did you use and which fitting can you use. I wanted to buy a machine, but their pricey.... I'm a fabricator, I can design and weld..... Just not familiar with all the types of fitting.... Thanks

      You can use pretty much any fitting. The trick is to figure out what fitting will fit to whatever it is you're connecting to, a pump, motor, cylinder whatever. The hose end of the fitting needs to match your hose size, and type of hose and should be compatible with your crimping system. I use the Eaton Weatherhead collets for the hose crimping. I buy my fittings from www.discounthydraulichose.com They have a great web site and stock a lot of different fittings. Their tech support has helped me out a number of time when trying to identify fitting types. I have found that identifying fitting types can be difficult. Check out my video diy logging winch, toward the end of the video the fittings blew out of the winch, which was due due to an incorrect fitting type. Best of luck, thanks for watching.

      I got the Eaton Coll-O-Crimp collet, die ring, and yellow crimp ring from www.lawsonproducts.com I bought them new only because I couldn't find them used at the time.The red base and pusher were fabricated from scrap I had around the shop.

    About how much were the hydraulic parts from Lawson? What size collets did you get? Great video. I have a new 20ton press and press pin/punch set. Thank you.

      Around $500. 1/2", works for most every thing I do. What is a press pin/punch set? Sounds useful.

      @@RichMenzel OEM tools sells the press set on Amazon. That’s where I got my 20 ton press. Another company on Amazon sells a large set of round press plates from 18 to 65 mm with a driver if you wanted to use it by hand or you can use these under your press and it works well.

    What are the parts number

    • @RichMenzel
      @RichMenzel  2 года назад

      The Eaton part numbers I used for 1/2" hose, other size hoses require a different collet and possibly different spacer rings. The red base and pusher were fabricated from scrap I had around the shop.
      Collet# T-400-4C
      Adapter Die Ring# T-400-8
      Spacer Ring Yellow# T-400-62

      I can’t find the charts where you know to have the flat side down or what collect you need if you change the hose size

    Ma che dispositivo da pressa è?

    • @RichMenzel

      It's a shop press, any shop press should work. The one in this video is homemade, it uses an air hydraulic 20 ton bottle jack, which I modified to work in the inverted position.
