How To Get the Affordable Hydraulic Pump With A Pressure Gauge For dp-hr10t35v Driptech Rosin Press?

Trying to get a jump on the affordable DIY hydraulic hand pump, hose, and gauge.

I have not tested any of this yet, but putting this up here as it's as close as I've got. Will likely be ordering the bushing and adapter once I have the parts in hand to verify the fittings.

This is what I am thinking right now, the fittings make this a more expensive option =/

1) Generic 10-ton hydraulic hand pump with hose 10000 PSI rated (1/4" NPT threads on hose)

Build at your own risk if you don't wanna wait for me to verify! Don't forget the Teflon tape to seal all threads.

It’s hard not to begin with “After extensive research” but……..I was aiming at this approach of building a separate pump to mate with the 10 ton press. After extensive research 😉 I chose to buy the 6 ton unit with integrated jack. I did so because most of my pressings will be two 7 g pucks. I’ll never need to exert more than 6 ton of pressure. I’m delighted that I narrowed it down for myself. Take away message: Before you chose a separate pump cost and build, consider if 3” x 5” plates with an integrated jack might work just as well for you 👍😉
