I Built This from A 1972 Popular Mechanics Magazine Plan.

I dive into my collection of Popular Mechanics Magazines to build something from the distant past! I build an arbor press from scratch using some of my favorite tools. Then, I test it to see if it can press as hard as it claims. I demonstrate stick welding, drilling, and shimming.

Here are the tools I used:
