I've always wanted a press for coining but could never afford one so i built one. It's 100 tons and uses an Enerpac cylinder and pump. The frame is a single piece of 1.5 inch steel burned out in the middle so there are no critical welds. Had it powder coated. I used my shaper to machine the lower platen this afternoon.
