Anyone have a Clarke (Machine Mart) hydraulic bench press, please ?

misanthrope:
So just to draw this to a conclusion...

Question, can you make a 10 tonne hydraulic press from a cheap porto-power clone ?
Answer,    Yes !

A local engineering firm cut the 2 1/4" x 14TPI thread in the ram mounting plate for me for just £25.
I had to buy the 1" thick blocks of steel, the rest I had lying around.
Total cost £65   

(Please overlook the paint, it's still work in progress...)

Nice work!  :clap:  :beer:
