as a note over the years i have found humongus cylinders on the backends of plastic extrusion presses that are no longer being used. 12 inch cylinder, 18 inch stroke 4 inch piston all you need to do is add a pump.

Well, Ron. :?
Did you take it back and get a replacement :?:

Even the higher quality bottle jacks can have a
bad one in the shipment once in a while. :lol:

Thats why they have a return system. :wink:
