Soooo I know it's been done so many times home made presses yeah yeah however I was curious what heat plates do you guys think would be cool in this press I'm "converting". It's a 12 ton carver press I picked up and plan on rebuilding the pump. I know it's overkill but it looks cool and has a guage. I'm thinking about making a shelf for the electronics to mount above it. Just have to source more acme thread nuts.

I'm tempted to buy 1in thick aluminium plate and make a custom plate that matches the carver press and bolt it in. I've never sourced heating elements or power supply's

Thinking about buying these and just taking the plates out of the cage and mounting them in

5.5 x 7in plate

I tried it with the current plates I have I'd just prefer more working room and a more clean look if turn them side ways though and have the wires go straight out the back instead of the sides to avoid the adjustment screws
