    . We try to restore a huge Screw Press. The Screw was bent by the previous owner and we had to do just about everything to try and get it straight enough to use. This was a massive restoration and has everything from forging and brazing brass to painting. We cover it all. Thanks to ​⁠@jimmydiresta for hooking up us with the beautiful legs!

    That came together beautifully. When I was young we took a tour of the state capitol building and at the time they still had about a 50% smaller screw press that used to be used for embossing the state seal, and I was terrified of that thing. You can get so much power out of just a sturdy screw and a wheel.
    For the replacement, the company contracted out was using a hydraulic press to emboss the seal on the covers, and allegedly the nearby university could tell when it was running on its seismometers.

    I grew up in Connecticut, and while most people think of expansive estates and well-off white people that seem to be cloned from a very shallow gene pool when they think of the state, artifacts like this are unambiguous reminders of my home state's deep blue collar history. I'm from Bridgeport, and the namesake company's mills are still highly sought-after, even though said company has been history for a long time.

    I'd have said give the channel to Ilya, but he'd never get out any content either. Let alone the 'So Well Received' leftovers here!

    What an absolute let down, we didn't even get to see it being used! 👎👎👎
    Between this, the spotty uploads and lack of Ilya I'm out.

      Thanks for sharing your thoughts! Just about all of them are false but ty for your comment

      @@ThatWorks Harsh, certainly, but no part of what they wrote was false. The press was not shown being used in the video, uploads have been spotty, and Ilya has not been around for a long time now. Literally nothing was false.
