Any of you fellas use a flypress or skrew press I used one a freind of mine has and really liked the control you have while forging hot or cold and was thinking of getting one and was wondering if any one else has had any experencies with them I have a couple little gaint hammers and a hydralic press for most my heavy forging but what I liked was the control I had and they have alot of force and they dont cost much to operate.

I have been working on alot of stuff and will post pictures when I get them done I'm just starting to calve right know so that will slow me down alittle though. hope all you fellas are gettin along good and are getting some things made.

Dave's right. Matt Humphreys and I recently spent several days with Dave and we both thought his screw press was about the neatest thing we had ever seen.
