PRESS // BUILD
The beginnings of the hydraulic shop press build up. The frame is built from 150 x 75mm PFC with 100 x 5mm SHS spacers for the deck and 60 x 5 angle for the legs. The deck pins are 25mm solid stainless steel rod, and the heel blocks are 30mm steel plate. Plan is to use the 20 ton bottle jack that I have here for now with the ability to modify the upper 30mm thick steel plate to accept a 50 ton hydraulic ram in the future if required, so I have build the frame stronger than initially required with this in mind. Next step is to build the bottle jack support with guide system to keep it tracking vertically.
