OLD, OLD swaging presses for sale
« on: August 15, 2005, 06:53:18 AM »
I was in a gun shop this past Saturday and saw two very old swaging presses for sale.
There is no markings on either to indicate who made them. They are both inclined with a sliding ram connected to a forward collapsing double bar toggle link. One appears to take very large 1"+ dies the other appears to accept 7/8-14
He may be able to send pictures if someone is interested. I think his prices would be very reasonable. (well under $200)
He is not open on Mondays and is located on the West Coast (Albany, OR) 10am-4or6pm
the phone number is 541-928-5054
Just tell him Joe from Bend sent you.
I hope someone can give them a good home.
Joe

Has anyone called on these presses? They are indeed solid pieces of machinery and the one that takes the larger diameter dies could easily be fitted with an adaptor to use a standard size swaging die.

Give him a call and put those fine old presses to work.
