Anyone in Austin have a hydraulic press?

[NewTxn]

I need to spend about an hour or two of quality time with a hydraulic press to finish up some AK work. If anyone in the Austin area can help me out I'd really appreciate it. I might even be able to bring ya a twelver of your favorite beer.

I have 6 ton press. No idea if you are going to need anything special for it. We had a guy here in Austin that was offering up his shop for rent. I will see if I can dig up the thread for you.

Found it

It looks like that guy is up near dallas.

I have all of the special tools, just need the press. The smallest press I've used was a 12 ton. Is your 6 ton one of the standard size H-frame presses? Stands about 4 feet tall? Also do you have the "X" plates (not sure what the technical term is) that the part you're working on sits on?
