plans for hydraulic press

[jfsmith]

I think HF has a 20 ton press for about $200.00. The 12 Ton HF is on sale for $79.00 online at this moment. I would say download the product manual and try working from there. You may figure out how to build a better one.

How To Plans has a nice set for only $6.95. I have several of their plans and they are well written and documented. Well worth the money.

has anyone built their own hydraulic press? I'm looking to build one in the 12 to 20 ton range. thanks

Be more specific....what kind of press are you talking about.........I built mine
but I'm not sure it's what you want. It's elec/hydraulic............

I built one with a 20 ton jack in it. Made sides out of 6" channel. I'll try to take a picture this weekend if you'd like to see it. Works great. You could probably get some ideas from looking at it

You're probably looking for free, but at least they have a good picture here:
