I got a shop press!

I’ve been wanting to get a shop press forever. Seriously. I could have used one when I was building my AMD-65’s, for pressing the barrel and components. Well, I got my monthly flier from Harbor Freight at the end of September. Someone there knows me…spooky. There, on the second page was the 20-ton press, on sale. Regularly sells for $280, but on sale on a super coupon for $149.99 that expired at the end of October. With tax it came to $162 with tax. What a SCREAMING deal! I’ll be able to press bearings on and off, press stampings, flats for different ‘projects’, whatever I need. Thanks to my gorgeous wife who made it happen.

So, I’ve been a little lacking in updating this page. Life goes on and I keep running out of time. Committing myself to do better.
