Table turns when I crank the handle, so pretty good I think Big Grin

I finally found one (actually he has several) and he was even really local! Well without further adieu, here it is:

The price wasn't too bad either.

Somebody stole the Fly from your fly-press !

Fly press? Super awesome! I thought they usually had a bigger throat, though...


RE: Latest Delivery - Vinny - 04-19-2017

A fly press was just an idea/possible substitute for a kick press. The kick press is what I was really looking for. I pretty much gave up on the idea of a fly press when the only ones I could find around here were over $1000. This one was $230.

Good price!


RE: Latest Delivery - awemawson - 04-20-2017

Vinny, what sort of force can that kick press generate?

I have a corner notcher that works on the same principal, and doing more than one or two 2" corners gets old VERY quickly !


RE: Latest Delivery - Vinny - 04-20-2017

It has two positions for the motion and force. The position it's in now has less motion but more force. The spec for the short stroke is 2.5 tons. It's a Model 10. The specs are at the bottom of page 4: http://vintagemachinery.org/pubs/1416/6583.pdf
