small, primitive Press with cutting and bending capability

[Noel.C]

Granted the bottle jack idea is certainly cheaper, but I think the
Arbor press will be more helpfull in the long run. It might help a bit
with riveting chainmail rings and putting belts together etc.

So

What I need here, is a cutting die that also provides a bend
and a punching action too and which fits into an Arbor Press.
Think I'll buy the press first and as im waiting for it to arrive.
I'll spend some time figuring out a design, then I'll come back
here and see if someone is willing to make it for me.

Thanks for the help, really feel im moving in a better direction now.

Hi Jonathan. Slow is not an issue for me really. It takes me
about 4 or 5 months putting together a full chainmail armour set.
Time is something I have plenty off. As for the die, yes CNC milled
sorry about that!
