Title: Manley hydraulic press
Post by: The norm on August 26, 2018, 11:16:08 PM

I found this cool old 60 ton press on offerup yesterday and I just couldn't pass it up. I ended up getting it for $280. It needs a little tlc, but otherwise it's in decent shape.

Nice! I love old tool finds. I found a MINT Columbian vise at a garage sale for $25. I was dumbfounded.
