   Well , the point is moot now cuz I got one . We stopped at a yard sale this afternoon and there it was , in all it's green metal-flake glory . As best as I can determine it is identical to a 2 ton unit selling on eBay for around 250 bucks new . This one's almost like new and I got it for a measly 40 bucks . I almost passed on it since I have a nice 20 ton HF press with an air/hydraulic jack . I guess now I need to find jobs to use it on , like pushing broaches or sumpin' . I was told it came from the shop of a machinist who "built guns" . I was also told he's in jail now ...
I have three hydraulic shop presses, but for many small jobs my arbor press is much faster and more convenient.  I easily use the arbor press hundreds of times more often than all the hydraulic presses combined.
Then again I use the arbor press to set alignment pins in molds I make everyday so...
Seriously if it has enough leverage to do the job its far faster than a hydraulic press.  Even those with air over jacks on them.  Probably faster than one with conventional hydraulics and an electric pump as well.
They just tend to have a lot lower max limit than a hydraulic press, and don't have the kinetic mass energy of a fly press.
