Hello all. This is a public service announcement. My housemate just got an e-mail saying the hoses on her recently purchased press has inadequately rated hoses and they are sending replacements and a how-to replace them.

If you've purchased a Coal Ironworks Press recently, you might want to hold off on using it and check to see if your press is affected.
 
Yeah, Coal Ironworks is a class act company. Not only did they send me two new hoses for my press but they also sent me two wrenches in case I did not have them to change the hoses. Classy.
 
I have their 12 ton H frame. It does what I need it to do and the dies are very easy to make yourself. I have found slotting the dies makes it much quicker to change dies just be sure to tighten the drawing dies so they do not move on you.
