FILENAMES: press-1.jpg DESCRIPTION: This is a picture of a small unusual hydraulic press. Posted by Tim Leech . Tim provided the following description: ================================================================= press-1.jpg is a small hydraulic press rescued from a scrapyard. I'd be interested to know whether this type of press is made for a particular purpose. It looks more like a piece of laboratory equipment than something from an engineering shop. There's about 5" of daylight above the ram, and 1" of ram travel.
