Catalog (free) full of helpful tips, and part numbers/pricing. The Norman Rockwell 2019 calendar was a nice touch (included but not shown).

And now....for proof positive that I do have an extra hole in my head, besides the ones I was born with...I present to you......yet another PoP (Porto Power) sourced while cruising Craigslist. A paltry 20 spot brought it home.

Does it work? Well, yes. It needed hydraulic oil, but leaks like a sieve from the ram (which I have torn apart) and have honed out with a brake cylinder hone.  That is next for the parts order to rescue.
