Nicely done TFOX. I wish I had those skills. My neighbor is a welder and I have an older style press here at home.
It would probably cost less than going out and buying the Apple version or an Xpress now wouldn't it?
Speaking of buying a new parallel limb bow........

Cost is MUCH less,about $450.00 less.[]
It has been pointed out to me that I MIGHT have some problems pressing some parallel bows due to the extreme angle of the posts.They might hit the limb pockets,if that is a problem,I might have to cut the post off andthen reatach at a little less angle.That really isn't that big of a deal.If you decide to do it,that might be something to look at.

Look at the jack,that wasn't there before.It was a standard press before.
Look at all the pictures,I know the quality isn't that good.
I quess it looks factory.I quess that it is good.
