    That's an impressive fly press, I hope to get a smaller one for my shop someday. I enjoyed seeing Cy, his shop, and his dog's trick 🙂

    I love those old machines. The irony of you not having a knife is very relatable! 😊

    you loook like it just took you a week to drive home lol , that beast is insanely huge ...getting it home is one thing then comes for me the interesting part of trying to get it where I need it...I just turned down a really good price on a lathe because I have no way ever of getting it into my shop....not sure I could even have gotten it off my driveway, so the forklift you have there just makes me green lol

      No the wood beam needed replacing. But it’s been re made and is almost ready. I can’t wait

    Early on in the video I was hoping the 30 ton would be up for sale. Where do you keep finding these amazing Fly Presses?

      I found both of these on eBay. Just gotta keep looking they pop up from time to time

    Do you just buy pieces and restore them to sell or what?
    Also what part of the country do you live in. It looks like the mountains in NC.
