table press

This is a table press which can exert quite a bit of force. It can be used to press in ball bearings, bushings, pins and the like. Fast adjustment is made by the use of knobs with inserted nuts. The force is then applied to the plunger by an excenter mechanism built in the levers. Total travel distance of the plunger is about 10mm. Usable clearance between the threaded rods is 90 mm.
You can add attachments to the plunger or the bottom plate via M4 bolts or you can print your customized parts (dies).
For example you can make christmas tree ornaments out of rusting sheet metal by twist bending it in a contraption as shown in the pictures. This gives your tree the heavy duty look.
For the full customer experience I suggest to print it with yellow filament :)
