Bare Bones Material List:
6” H-Beam 60”L (x2) - Frame Uprights
6” H-Beam 12”L (x2) - Frame Crossmembers
6” H-Beam 11-7/8”L - Head / Traveling Block
6” Channel 36”L (x2) - Feet / Frame Base
2” x 2” x 1/4” Angle 12”L (x3) - Frame Base Crossmembers

5-1/2” x 12” x 1/4” (x6) - Head and Crossmember Face Plates
5” x 8-1/4” x 1/2” - Bottom Pivot Pin Receiver Base Plate
5’ x 6-1/4” x 1/2” - Top Pivot Pin Receiver Base Plate
5’ x 3-1/2” x 1/2” (x8) - Pivot Pin Receiver Verticals
2’” x 3” x 1/4” Angle 6”L (x4) - Guide Rails

NOTE -
* YOU MUST HAVE A PRESSURE GUAGE INSTALLED IN ORDER TO ADJUST PRESSURE*
- TO ADJUST PRESSURE - Turn Adjustment Screw CLOCKWISE to INCREASE Pressure / Turn COUNTER-CLOCKWISE to DECREASE Pressure
- Route Port A of Valve to Top Port on Cylinder, and Port B of Valve to Bottom Port on Cylinder in order to have the ram engage when toe on foot pedal is pressed down. The handle will engage the ram when pressed toward ceiling, and will retract the ram when handle is pulled down.

    • ​@GhostMade217 is there anyway you could send me a list of all the materials you used. I'm looking to build my own press. I'm a veteran and need to save as much money as possible thanks.

  • Returned to first video after wathcing all 3. Overall - pretty well made press! one thing from original press is missing - angle irons that are protecting gaps between I-beams and moving head from all scale that can fall into that gaps and lead to some issues in the future. Also I want to ask - why don't you mount top cyliner holder same way, as you did with bottom one (I mean, why don't you just bolt it to head) ?

  • Hopefully that small flux cored wire feeder Hobart got enough penetration given the fact that the hydraulic press puts out tremendous force continuously trying to rip itself apart. I know you were worried about too much heat warping the frame but with proper clamping you really shouldn’t need to worry about that especially with thicker material and clamping. Personally I’d have stick welded that as hot as you can burning in your beads in short lengths and moving around like you did but really laid down some hot and beefy welds instead of a flux cored wire feeder doing multiple passes with lesser welds but I do hope it works out for you

  • It doesn't look like your parts links worked. It seems like the full links were missing.
