Default Need something bent? Check out my press

Got this in an auction sale about 8 years ago. I can bend railroad track into a U shape with it!! It's estimated 200 tons force. There isn't anything I can't break, or fix with with the proper positioning and blocking. Check it out!

I miss the one I used to use like that @ work,
it was nice for straightning WATCH stems ----
I see things big like that @ auctions and the only bids they get are fellows buying scrap iron, it makes me sick.
Just be careful, as I'm sure you have found out, it will break things quick. BTDT

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
