  • Another build video from Making Stuff. This time it's a DIY Bench Top Hydraulic Press.
    A lot of people have asked for dimensions. Here they are:
    All 2 inch angle iron pieces are 19" long.
    All 2 inch square tube is 24 inches long.
    3D Sketchup file is available to all Maker + Patreons.

    You remind me of that cool hippy from the the neighborhood that was always fix8ng and breaking things. Cars, fridges, lawnmowers, ac units.

    Good idea. I have one of HF's small presses that I never use. I could shorten it up, maybe add some additional holes on the vertical rails. Probably find myself using it more.

    Marking the legs removeable is a good idea. I would have used selfsecure bolds instead of screws. That would make it a lot easier and faster. I although would put a hole on ether end of the feet to store the feet with the bolds on the press when not in use.

    Nicely done, I have watches several videos on building small hydraulic press and this is one of the nicer ones and simple too, some were overly complicated to build, not that I could not do that but I figure why make things complicated it they do not need to be.

    Easy to build a press drilling them Holes that takes some time. And you do need some sort of metal saw to cut the metal in pieces.

    Really nice build! Love that you own your mistakes in your videos and share your thought process as you make adjustments to your design. Makes you a great teacher! Have to say though, your long hair makes me super nervous around the drills, lathe, etc...! But maybe I’m just jealous because I’m balding!! 🤣🤣 Love your channel - keep up the great work!

    It's so nice to see how you made the press. It seems the lathe rpm was too high while you drilled the press rod and that can ruin the drill bit quite quickly. Cheers.

    • @kevins5016
      @kevins5016 2 роки тому

      I believe that's called fast forward.. a editing trick to make time faster so you the viewer spends less time watching videos instead of building stuff. And you thought you were telling the dude how to use his machine..ha

    Bob I really enjoy your projects and your build videos ,your designs are always spot on and the execution makes it look very easy for the average person to do at home. I will probably be making one of these , will have to look in my metal scrap pile and see what I can dig up . I have built a vertical bandsaw with the he harbor freight bandsaw and have been very pleased with it. It is one of my most used items when doing a metal projects. Wondering how you like your horizontal bandsaw do you get square cuts from it ? Have you thought of adding a pneumatic downfeed cylinder so you don’t have to hold your hand on it while cutting? If so it would be a great project to do a video on . As always great videos great content thank you

    • @MakingStuff
      @MakingStuff  4 роки тому

      I get square cuts from it as long as it does not cut too fast on thin material. That's why I'm holding it, to keep it from cutting too fast. I have thought about putting a pneumatic cylinder on it, but have no idea which one to buy or where to get it. Thanks for watching!

    edit: find some time to put some of that oil spray on the drill press, little sandpaper,it's starting to look like...brown.

  • @erik....
    @erik.... 4 роки тому +2

    98% of the people building this already have a welder, so I don't think it's a problem. You should buy some short drillbits.. Much more stable for drilling less than 25mm/1" material. And also you could grind a radius on the bottom of the legs so that they can be folded flat with no interference to the ground. And also 4 tonnes is a bit on the weak side.. Weld reinforcement flat irons on the bottom of the "table" and the top and then upgrade the jack to 10 tonnes. :)

      Yeah steel prices are insane right now. They can just keep it. I had to postpone a big project due to it now cost 3x to build.
