    If it's aluminum then it's not the one I was thinking about in your pm.
    Unmarked, it could be a one off as a casting class project or an attempt to get into the press market.

    I have a couple of aluminum presses that exist in very low numbers that would indicate a local market only sales area.

    Very nice. I wonder if it's a prototype?

    How well does it work compared to some of the normal LEE, RCBS, Pacific, etc. presses sold now?

    I'd use it! Probably for light work as it doesn't appear to have very much leverage. I could load most of my handgun ammo just fine though. I kinda like the looks (but I ain't gonna give up my Co-Ax!!).
