| Do you know any mexicans with hydrolics on their lowrider? Go take a look at a pump/resivor set up. You might get an idea. |

| Our press is 200 tonnes, we only use 100 and that is plenty - don't know what the conversion is? |

So does anybody know if a 4 or 6 tonne press would be suffcient. I forget where I saw them but they're these smaller workbench versions and they don't cost a fortune. I'll try to remember where it was I saw them and post a link.
We've been using a bag press and clamps but looking into something a little less low-tech. |

These ones seem beefier than the other ones mentioned above but same idea though. What do you guys think of these? Would they work?
Ok heres where they are I can't get the link to work it says to go back to the catalog. So if you want to check these out go here: http://www.harborfreight.com/ then type hydrualic press in the search bar. Thanks let me know what you think. |

| I use to do Sand Casting when I was 14, that would be a alternative route instead of the CNC route. I helped make aluminum Thunders when I was 14 just to learn how to do it. I got my SUPER TALENTED cousin looking at some deck mold options just for education reasons. He gets hired to get shipped across the world and teach people how to use new equipment, and he is still a young MF. I usually don't brag about family, but the guy is outstanding... |
