Hydraulic Press Anvil Design

Ed,

There are certainly many designs for Hydraulic Presses.

What are your feeling on the design of the lower anvil support?

The Imagination Xpress has the lower anvil mounted to the frame (Picture 1)



while designs like yours have support directly to the base (Picture 2)



I'm just getting to that point in the design and construction of my press and need to decide which way would be best to go.

Also Ed do you have any closeups of your controls (hand and foot)


Anyone else that has an opinion, please post your preference and experiences!
