Does any one have construction plans for a Regan wheel (spoke) press? I would like to build one. Thanks

I would like to build a press with these plans but they are not quite clear enough for me to read them, even when I enlarged them. Can anyone post clearer drawings?

i had a similar issue with not being able to see some things like these plans well enough to read them. I went by the local christian ministry that sells donated items to help the poor and bought a 42 inch plasma monitor for 20 bucks. Been using it now for about 3 years. I can SEE stuff now! :D

I have used this press on 2 cars and it has 2 issues. The height of the 4-4 s are only high enough for the rear wheel and for the front I had to add 2-4s to get enough height. Other wise worked ok
