[TheForge] Press Update

So I stopped by and had a look at the press that my welder has for sale and it turns out that it is a 40 Ton Ironworker. I didn't get to snap off any pics because it was raining and cold. He tells me that he used it this past summer. It is in need of some TLC, but the motor/tank/lines are all encased on the back side of the unit. It looks like the lines will need to be replaced, but that isn't a big deal. The major concern I have now is getting it delivered and I need to know what size pad I should pour if I can't fit it in my garage. I am going to go back when the weather is better and get some pics/measurements. I'll keep you all informed.

Thanks again for all of the input on the 100 ton that I was/might still be entertaining building. I think if my partner wants to buy me out on the ENERPAC stuff I'll let him build the 100 ton.

Thanks Guys
Mark
