Here is the press as I found it.
After a little TLC. Press is really tight, not worn at all.
I had one just like it in 1961 that I bought new. Loaned it out and never got it back. I have been looking for one at the right price for years!

Looking good - and nice bench, btw.

There is no 'right' that requires me to work for you or you to work for me!
That's a nice restoration. Would you consider another loan?
The first purpose of the Second Amendment is too often overlooked, fostering a liberty of mind and action necessary in the people of a free republic.

That's what my bench looks like when I close my eyes
The other 6 feet out of the picture looks good when I close my eyes too!That's what my bench looks like when I close my eyes
I re-purposed mine to a dedicated priming press for the 50BMG. It is perfect, as I can "feel" the seating pressure.
Nice job on that old girl. I've got one that looks just like your top picture. I'll just keep using mine like it is, I would buy a red bicycle grip for the handle if I could find one.
I would love to find an old c&h 1 or 3 die press, at a reasonable price of course! You did it justice for sure! Looks good.
That's pretty impressive...looks new.
Sweet ! I'm a sucker for CH tools , they are nice.
Good score .

I'm just have fond of the memories at 15 years old, learning on my CH C press and a CH H press like this one. Lost the C press at the same time. Glad to have the H back though.
job well done!
I always enjoy seeing these kind of projects
