I'm a little confused on how a bottle jack is used to "squeeze" your brake.
The bottle jack expands, so what else is it pushing against?

LOL, Sorry, I guess I should have explained it better. It is a up right press, but has a bottle jack that does the "pressing"



A few more pics from today....



I didn't get much done. Spent too much time looking for a chunk of 3" pipe.. I ended up "rolling my own" pipe out of some "fuel cell" scraps..... The pipe is for a PVC set-up...
