Hey bownut. Send Lee Slikkers a pm about his. He actually made one up that's better than the one s for sale. I've seen it in person. Get the specs from him. Its frigging awesome. The main post is on a locking bearing hitch so the press can be tilted and rotated around in a lot of different directions. And it locks off solid to. It sweet.

I would just spend a bit more money and get a jaw horse from rockwell if you make anything else other than bows, unless you are just supporting a cause.
