I can think of many uses from electronic connectors to using it for

Well I lied. The press is about 6 inches tall. There are no holes to
mount it on anything, but it fits very nicely in my vise. I can think
of a lot of uses for it, but they all work just as well in my regular
arbor press. With its small size it is somewhat awkward.

I use my milling vise as a small arbor press. It reaches 1000 Lbs with
normal handle force.

Using a milling vise often means you don't have to leave the machine your setting up/running. Job shop owners love that! :)
