Are the round barrel Henry's worth that much? Seems a bit much for a beat up one. New ones are about $250

They are usually 279.99 here. For $200 with a $50 scope is not so much to me. Plus i like having projects.

From a friend in the engineering dept at a certain flying machine builder in the PNW. Operator left a pair of snappy needle nose pliers in that press die. Only thing the op gets to keep for his wall of shame is his failed piss test (and walking papers). Press survived and the die is salvageable. 6 digit repair bill plus downtime at mucho dollars per hour.

Did the pliers survive?

All that work in engineering the tooling so the press and tooling work properly and a pair of pliers screw everything up. What was damaged on the press? It looks you found a problem o-ring in something.

I can't fathom how expensive it must be to repair a precision die. The time and effort for something that large is always costly.

Usually it damages the gibs

I figured that was probably the damaged parts.

That would be the usual way.

Did they have to air freight new gibs from Germany?

Yes. Took 6 months to make
