Feel the same way Tom, I purchased my 20 ton press about 1/2 way through the restoration, at least I have it for the future. Done a number of jobs for friends too now. I get satisfaction doing things for people that they otherwise couldn't have done for themselves unless they opened their wallet and paid somebody to do it.
