Would anyone have an idea what is this press supposed to be for.

It is a little dull looking because it had some rust on it that I removed.


It looks like a neat device.

Is the foot on the screw machined to fit the bottom, or is it just a
flat surface?


It is machined to be the OPPOSITE of the bottom.

Interesting! sure would no do much for a production line use.

Try putting a piece of thin aluminum sheet in the press and see what
you get. Don't screw down too tight unless you know there is enough
clearance in the die.
