    How To Make a 20 Ton Hydraulic Press

    Hello!
    I'd like to share a video I made about making a 20 ton hydraulic press out of a bottle jack, 100mm c-beams, springs etc.
    Really simple design but the outcome is very useful for a home workshop like mine.
    Hope you'll like my approach and the video will help some of you to make your own homemade press

    Materials used:
    - Angle Bar 40x40x4 L1000
    - Square Tube 40x40x2 L1000
    - C-Beam 100x50x6 L1500
    - 20T Bottle Jack
    - C-Beam 100x50x6 L1000
    - Flat Bar 150x8 L500
    - Round Bar D35 L100
    - Flat Bar 100x10 L500
    - Flat Bar 40x5 L1000
    - Flat Bar 100x10 L500
    - Springs 21x200x3
    - Round Bar D12 L500 (for handle mod)
