Vevor #3 Arbor press (aka another clean-up project), just hoisted onto the bench next to the 20 ton hydraulic press.
The hydraulic press is a 2 speed hand pump (two cylinders with different diameters) so on the high speed/low force side there is some slight feel, but still a bit dicey for broaching, which I've done all too often on it. So in the name of safety, I bought this.
At quick glance the base and base wheel both need to be cleaned up (machined smooth and flashing ground). Will have to assemble the handle/rachet to see how good that is.
