Hi All
again, thanks for the replies
getting a bit interesting now

the bottom part simply pulls out once the screw is loosened off
and the top part is just unscrewed from the main plunger/shaft and has something very close to a m6 thread
so a new shaft/plunger has already been made and threaded m6 so as to make things easier for me
new pieces/dies will now be made m6
so very easy to change pieces/dies

when i first saw it i thought that it would be handy as a small press for those smaller parts
and a damn site cheaper than a proper press

more than happy with me new purchase

thanks for the replys

only just about an inch of clearence between top and bottom parts
so no room for shotgun cartridges
could be something to do with rivets. has a small pointed type top section and relative bottom receiver part
both top and bottom parts are easily removable and could be changed within seconds to enable different jobs to be done

ive added a couple of hopefully clearer photos to see if that will help any further

John, as you say, it is at the moment a promising small press for use in the shed/shop. just need to use the brain a bit
replaceable bits are easily made for it, both being relatively small and easily turned on the lathe

Hi Chaps/chapesses

bought this today at the local booty

had to shell out a hefty £2 for this and would like to have a better idea of what it is/was/ does/doesnt do

any ideas ?

total height is exactly 12 inches to the top of the handle as it stands

but i cant vouch for it as i dont/cant use IE

try using google to find alternatives

use Firefox as your browser and install adblock plus to block all adverts on this and every other site

basically this website and forum is an after thought from the publishers of MEW and they and the editor arent really bothered with it

minimal fuctionality and usablity

Hey Sid

fully appreciate what your saying, and i absolutely had no intention of reporting anyone....too lazy.... ))

pinging me [or anyone else for that matter] would only give a VERY general location and is just about useless for locating people generally.

and detecting an errant IP addy from my firewall logs would take only seconds if i were of a mind to look for one

the point i was trying to get across is that some people seem to think that if you dont want to tell the world your business then there must be an ulterior motive. Well theres not ! Some people just like to protect their privacy for no other reason than its nobody elses business.

im in full agreement with wotsit. where is it written that people HAVE to divulge their whereabouts just because someone suddenly thinks its the right thing to do ?

im quite happy sitting here in the wings watching, reading, learning and generally observing. telling everyone where i live has no bearing on anything at all.

99% of the time it makes no difference whatsoever to the outcome of a thread where anyone resides or stays

but im much more interested in exactly what springbok thinks he can do to me or anyone else simply by pinging their machine. and if he does suddenly start pinging and scanning my IP address, why does he think i should'nt or would'nt immediatly report him to his ISP and mine for attacking my machine ?

im also using an iMac and using OS 10.7.3

Although i use FF rather than Safari

i just checked the "Weldability of various steels" thread using both browsers and only get the ad problem using Safari

its all OK in FF 10.0.2

Testing again

this time using an iMac using OS Lion 10.7.3

and using FF10.0.2 with several add-ons active
