Abstract

The OSE CEB press requires a custom cylinder - 5x8x2.5 inch, but with 3.5" of rod sticking out and no rod end.

The 5" cylinders are about $500 - and an open source version can be half of that if we start from honed cylinder tubing. It is useful to open-source that - as that once more turns every cylinder into a reusable module. The main point of open-sourcing by OSE is standardizing to one build method which allows for universal interchangeability of parts and 3D printed seals, such that any cylinder can be reworked or repurposed easily and inexpensively.
