Awesome stuff! I got my half ton arbor press at Harbor Freight for around $40us with a coupon. It's not super high quality but it has worked for everything I've needed it to. I used it to stamp leather but didn't realize all the potential. Now I just need to get some dies made. Thanks for making this vid. Can't wait to see more! 👍👍

По русски такая вырубная форма называется "штанц-форма". В крупных городах несложно найти компанию которая изготовит ее по вашему чертежу. В интернете найти изготовителя еще проще. Реечный пресс тоже не является большой редкостью. Но для вырубки я бы выбрал пресс с большим усилием, на 1,5-3 тонны. Вырубать лучше на плите из LDPE - полиэтилена высокого давления: этот материал позволит оставаться ножам штанц-формы острыми долгое время. Некоторые разделочные доски делают из LDPE.

An inspirational video, thanks. I recommend Atlas Dies Ltd. They supply these types of dies for leather cutting. They’re based near Romford, east of London. I’ve bought the dies and they’re top quality British made. Just need an arbor press now, a one tonne press not a half tonne press! Although, Atlas have their own clicker press and would do the cutting.

Good job Again my friend! I also bought an arbor press 1 ton a couple of months ago on amazon.ca and it it pretty useful for logo marking!

Great video, I've been looking at one for weeks now. For about 100 euros I can get a 1T press delivered from Amazon.de here in Europe. I was also thinking of using it to stamp my maker's mark, perhaps set some rivets and if I decide to go that route, use it to cut with smaller clicker dies. I'm glad yours suits You well and that even with smaller pressing force of 0.5T it works well for you.
