Chas,
All a press is is a hydraulic jack on an adjustable structural steel
frame. I always buy an old heavy duty one, figuring that the worst that
can happen is I rebuild/replace the jack. Last one I bought was a 30
ton, 6' high so that I could do truck axles, paid $175. Watch the
classifieds and auctions.
