This is a followup video to the "DIY hydraulic hose crimper, First crimp" https://youtu.be/XKJVpY957qM In this video I show how I made it and how it's used. I got the Eaton Coll-O-Crimp collet, die ring, and yellow crimp ring from www.lawsonproducts.com I buy my fittings from www.discounthydraulichose.com The red base and pusher were fabricated from scrap I had around the shop. The shop press is also DIY, using a Harbor Freight 20 ton air over hydraulic bottle jack modified to work inverted. Here's the link for shop press walk-around showing a few details on the press https://youtu.be/6pvZK6e5i4s The Aussie Shed has a great set of videos for modifying a bottle jack : https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLooB2EjBotjIMPdVFfAr5LtTvThTIRWEQ Chris Eigenheer has a great blog on building the shop press: https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbXhfVExkUUI2c1hnbjZybXlxaEI1UVJXNGI5d3xBQ3Jtc0tucS1VdFNaWUVvdG5nSDJlV25DeFg3RldvZHdNc0trR3RBNWlJZ3ZnelB6NlY2ZE9PeW5mOGFzYTRIOS1HMEJzQjc4VmRhNjdBa0VFa0d1NEZ0bkZDaEdTaHNZeW9BNUVjeFByU1lrUHA0Sl9rNmt3TQ&q=http%3A%2F%2Fchris-eigenheer.blogspot.ca%2F2016%2F10%2Fdiy-20-ton-shop-press-with-upside-down.html&v=bIQ437nbnwQ
