None of the problems were fatal, thankfully, and the structure of the press
itself was sound. No cracks, no repairs, no damage apart from that bent
cross-brace between the legs at the very bottom. Probably from somebody
dropping a heavy part off the table.
It's not heavy, only 500-600 lb, but my small crane wasn't tall enough to pick it
off the bed of my truck. Thankfully I have neighbors with some fun toys, and he
walked this dainty flower over to unload the press for me. :)
