No foundation of any kind needed. Running on any 110v 20 amp outlet allows you to take the press anywhere in the shop and even outside with an appropriately sized extension cord. Because the press is so quiet in use there is little concern working in a residential setting. ![]() Check out our videos to see that while our press is compact and runs on 110v power, it is VERY powerful and allows for a massive increase in the size of material forge-able in your shop. Included with your new machine is a set of our most versatile forging dies - the combo dies. These allow you to effortlessly move from drawing out your material to bringing it back to square and clean on the flats. If you are a home user or hobbyist the 1018 Cold Rolled dies will be perfectly adequate. After some time forging they will show wear, but are easy to clean up on a grinder and get back to work. When they completely wear out, a new set is inexpensive to replace them with. If you are working hard materials, or forging regularly the H13 dies come ready to work. They resist deformation well and will give a long service life before needing dressed. Our Quick change die holders allow for fast and easy die changing during forging. Machine comes in Navy Grey.

I have a few questions about press design before I go ahead and build mine. Firstly, what sort of cylinder speeds are you guys getting. How quick is quick enough. (in FPM please) Secondly, what sort of force is adequate for general bladesmithing? I keep seeing blacksmiths with 50ton setups, and somehow I don't think it necessary. Third, what sort of pump setup are you guys using? Single stage, two stage, pressure compensated.ect. Also, what pressures? Last, single phase or two phase? I have two phase available right now, but I would probably like to be able to move the thing if my living situation changes. Thanks alot for your help guys. Mine is WAY over built. 15hp, 3 phase, 12gpm single stage pump, 5 inch cylinder with a 14.5 inch throw.
