This finally came yesterday. A little 1 ton arbor press. It's nice for pressing bearings. It works pretty well. I used it to press new bearings for my table saw. It was dirt cheap. It's from Vevor and after a small discount, it was a measly $65 with free shipping. It's a little rough on the casting and the machining, but nothing that impairs its function. For the money, I'm pretty pleased with it. I've bought quite a few things from Vevor now and, so far, I've been happy with the stuff. The prices are usually about half, or even less, of what a brand name costs. Yea, it's Chinese. However, 90%+ of the brand name stuff is also Chinese. It is what it is, I suppose.

Finster, Did you build those cabinets? Fancy looking veneer. Yup, I did an entire post on it a couple of weeks ago from start to finish.
