Default Hydraulic press

Talked to an old friend today ,been 3 years since we last spoke.
He's turning 100 this summer and trying to find homes for some
of his big equipment.
His dad worked for KR Wilson in Arcade, NY and obtained a hydraulic press
made by the same company. It is a 10 ton.

Does anyone have a photo of such a press ???

I do not, but if you can get it and it's not beyond your shop, get it.


A press is a wonderful thing. Depending on what you are doing, you might not need it often. But nice to have. Just because he worked for KR Wilson doesn't mean it's one. Harbor freight has them for 100$


Post pictures when you go look at it... first thing I would do.
