dbHunterNY Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 it's honestly worth it just to buy a cheaper capable press. i've got the Apple Archery Edge press, but a really good one is the Last Chance Archery EZ Green Press. The difference is with my Edge press i can't fully relax the limbs and it takes some setup time to press a bow. Both are between $350 and $400. Most homemade presses I know of copy the concept of the EZ Press. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckrich Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 The materials to complete this press cost about $150. Or, if you don't want to mess with all of the internal components you can buy a square trailer jack, weld on some arms and fingers to each end, mount it to the wall and you're good to go. I think I saw it called the Redneck's EZ press... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
