Default Cute arbor press

I went to a tag sale this morning and among other things I bought an arbor press. It had a bunch of surface rust, but no pitting. And has no brand name or for that matter no text on it. The whole thing is only about five inches high. So it is much smaller than say a 1/2 ton arbor press.

I bought it because it was cute, and only $5. But am curious if anyone knows of an application for such a small arbor press. I already have a 1/2 or 1 ton arbor press.

Lots of uses. Crimping little pins into place, we've drilled the sides
of the ram and attached X-acto blades for cutting spacers, etc.
