Making a paper crafting press

[Norppu]

My wife does some paper crafting and needs a press to make use of the diverse punches to cut interesting shapes out of paper. The press she had was really short-lived and now she needs one that won't let her down.
In this case the journey was better than the goal. I learned a lot about making gears and doing precision machining.
I also made a video series about this build and there is a playlist in my YouTube channel of those. There are 12 videos all together.
