Harbor Freight has them for around $70. It has a rating of 6 tons, but it takes every ounce of it's capability to form a good 115mm flange in .025", the smaller diameters are fine up to .040". I think the rating may be overstated, I may have to upgrade the jack someday. If shop space is a concern, this press is very convienient. If I had the space, I would have gotten the 12 ton model. Overall I am really happy with it for the price.
