Great intro any chance on another video talking about the other aspects of the press? Including the slip / safety clutch, adjustment of the brake, etc. Just started restoring a tiny 6 ton obi. Seems all videos about obi presses are just short demos from machinery suppliers and almost no talk about the machines and the dies themselves .. thanks!
Boy I'd like to...I just rarely find the time outside of regular production. You are welcome to email us though and I am happy to help with what I can.
Rookie question here but, what is the actual name of the piece that holds the die? Recently acquired a Obi press but came with no tooling. Thanks very much! Really helpful video, too!
One last question if you don’t mind? Could you by chance tell me the manufacturer of the die shoe you have? Doing a bit of searching online and I’ve yet to see one like yours that holds the round dies. I see plenty of round dies on eBay but nothing to hold them. Thanks again! Really appreciate your time.
When I remove the safety guards from a Denison Multipress - "Meh, I got time". When I remove the safety guards from a direct drive mechanical press - " NOPE."
Liked that safety tool!! Informative video.
I'm getting ready to start a new job running one of those machines this was very helpful
Good luck! Let us know how it goes!
How about another video on setting up , this was very helpful
Thank you, very sensible video.
Great video thanks

Timothy here...the guy in the video:-)
It's most often referred to as a die shoe.
Thank you very much!

Where's your safety glasses guy?😮
True true...well I recently got optical glasses and they are safety issue, so I have no chance of forgetting anymore.
(I'm the guy in the video BTW)
No 2 hand safety?
Yes, Timothy still has two hands! Lol, but seriously, if we expand to more operators different guarding is installed.
Holding crecsent wrench in wrong direction. Very very unsafe!!!!
