Packing a Suitcase with a 150-Ton Hydraulic Press

  • In this video, we'll take on a unique challenge: fitting an entire week's worth of clothing and essentials into a carry-on suitcase using a 150 ton hydraulic press. Watch as we expertly select items for a week-long trip and then use the raw power of the hydraulic press to compress everything into a carry-on sized bag. We'll explore the limits of packing efficiency and the strength of the suitcase, pushing the boundaries of what's possible in travel packing. Will the suitcase withstand the pressure? Can we really fit a week's worth of items into such a small space? Tune in to find out, and enjoy this fun and slightly unconventional approach to travel packing!

    Have you tried a 2-piece outer press tool? Imagine the outer ring cut into two C-shapes, joined with an interlocking lug-clevis hinge, and a cam lever closing clamp on the other side? You could perform this kind of operation so much faster; just unlock the cam clamp and remove the item, lock it down again, and you're ready for another cycle

      I wonder if with solid items a simple false bottom would work? As long as it's thick enough and has a decent fit within the tube. Then the other end would have a tapered opening, so you only need to flip it over and press out the bottom and puck.

    The new press looks great, I am looking forward to seeing that. Regarding the bunker, a quick word of warning if you ever intend to rapidly decompress any gas containing thing inside it, it is surprising to see what doing that can do inside even a looslely enclosed volume. I did some work for a gas cylinder manufacturer here in the UK, they had a small test building for destruction testing their gas cylinders (the kind of bottles you might have for argon, acetylene, etc. in your workshop), normally they did the testing with pressurised water, so there was no significant decompression, but apparently they once did a special test with compressed gas (probably nitrogen or something), they prepared the room by opening all of the windows and the door but still it blew the roof right off the building and cracked the concrete walls. My advice would be tie the walls together at the top (roof eaves level) and have the roof fairly flimsy so that it can be blown off easily and allow the pressure out. And probably still stop short of exploding a 50 Litre compressed gas bottle at 230 bar inside it.
