I made my own based on the Bowmender design. I used 1.25" x .25" steel bar with 0.5" holes drilled through. Added a quality rachet strap and it presses everything - split limb or otherwise.

I sure wouldn't press acenter pivot designed bow. Youare onlysupposed to press the main ends of the limb on mostsplit limb center pivot bowtechs.

Like this.

RE: Bowpress

I have a bowpress in my garage but in a pinch a tie down ratchet works, hook the rubber hooks on the cams and winch it until pressed, works like a charm.
