I've been hesitant to spend $500 on that, but I've got some brazing to do in the near future, so I'm watching Craigslist for one now.

Also, look back at one of the pictures with the press in it. See all those holes? I drilled every damn one of those with a hole saw on an even shittier drill press. I think it took me a whole day, plus to make sure I had them all lined up I was actually drilling through four 1/4" pieces stacked up. Compared to that, a couple holes through some 3/8" plate just flies right by.
