I've always wanted a "good" arbor press like a Dake, with a ratchet mechanism, I have a 3 ton Grizzly unit, but that just a rack and pinion, no ratchet. After about 5 years I cut the pinion down, machined it so it would take a 3/4" ratchet, to drive the pinion. It works much better, but I still would like a Dake.
