    Reloading Press Single Stage

    This is a single stage auxiliary press that I use for reloading. It is rather tough so if I need to swage pockets I will go with this one. If I have to deviate from my reloading plan I can always set up this press and not have to alter my main press. I have also used it a bit to experiment with making some of my own dies. The head is replaceable so I could use dies other than 7/8-14 or even use it for pressing bearings etc.
    Mostly aluminum with two 1018 steel links. The handle was a piece of pipe from the scrap box. The ram was a find on eBay which saved quite a bit of time.
    It is for 7/8-14 dies.

    Cheers, JR
