[TheForge] Plans for a Hydraulic Press

[Peter Fels & Phoebe Palmer]

The knife makers are deep into that stuff.
Much of what's offered seems underbuilt.
One critical problem is having it move fast enough under load that too much heat isn't lost to the dies.

I am looking for plans to build a 50 ton hydraulic press.
This isn't necessarily for forging (although I want to build that as well).
I think that I heard about one that can be built from
off the shelf parts from Northern Tool.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

thanks,
your list mom, dave m
