Dumpster diving RULES!!!

I can never pass a scrap metal bin or a dumpster without taking a look. Every now and then it pays of. I saw this workshop press standing outside at work. As it turns out it was about to get tossed in the scrap bin. Talk about right place right time.

It is a 1977 (great vintage!!!) German made Compac P15 press. It does need some attention, but I like overhauling old machinery.

I was actually looking into buying a press to bend and dent stays. This means I can spend my money on somethig else......
