Works perfectly for my use as a heated press MyBest.Tools Space between the ram jack and the base is a little tight. Make sure you set the ram jack arm so that it's in a position for you to get maximum leverage on whatever you're pressing. You may have to unbolt the front plate of the press and realign the ram in the teeth so that the arm is not at an awkward angle when fully cranked down.Other than aligning the ram in the teeth with the crank arm this .5 ton arbor press comes out of the box pretty much ready to use.

Thanks for the video. I was wondering...what are the dimensions of the steel plate you put under the ceramic? Thanks.

Very informative video! I got some scrap countertop material that I need to cut to size and round the front corners like you did. What did you use for those procedures? Any cutting tips would be appreciated. Thanks for the video.

I would love to see if a nail clipper could be attached to your press? Great video btw.
