@house_mercantile: Well we have done a scissor jacks with the hand crank, impacts, and drills, and a Hydraulic jack. This year we add the air jack to the list Results : It Presses!!! I have never worked with an air jack before and was very uncertain about the pressure stages it provides so taking it slow and keeping an eye on it was import. Check out my current line up of apple pressing videos and I have more coming. Www.housemercantile.com #house_mercantile #smallshop #woodworking #homesteading #applepress
