  3. Gauge?

    Can you add a hydraulic gauge to this, to know how much weight is being pressed down.?

    1. It would be very difficult if at all. This press is actuated by a bottle jack which does not have the fittings or design to accommodate a pressure gage. That said, you could probably incorporate some kind of mechanical pressure (weight) scale to measure the force between the jack and the work, but that might cost as much as the press.

    2. This unit is not designed for use with a gauge.
