    Hello Karl, I spent 26 years in a factory that built hydraulic pumps so I have been involved with hydraulics for a while. You have built a very nice machine. Very nice upper and lower mechanical limits.

    Very impressive, especially how rapidly the piston retracts.

    Very nice press, and you have nothing to apologize for about your English.
