Default In search of a BETTER pen press

I currently use a pen press from PSI and it's only "Adequate", The push
toggle flexes up under pressure and theres a little all around slop in
the opposite pressing surface. I like this style of press and want to
make my own.

Just wondered if anyone has built their own and has found a good heavy
duty horizontal toggle that didn't flex and also how flex was handled
on the other end. Any pics you might have would be great too.

Thanks....Ken


i use a harbor freight arbor press. works great and can be mounted to
your assembly bench in a matter of minuts. cheaper than a good pen
press too!
