By the way, if you are planning on using standard wheel cups, you should be aware that the shanks on lower wheel cups are 5/8 inch.
Old thread on press hole sizes

Yeah, I saw that - but THANKS! I actually bought the wheel cups before I had the arbor press, so I had those two tools as guides.

I'm trying to decide whether to use the rotary base that comes with the Harbor Freight press, or build a flat 4" x 5" x 3/4" block of metal with the appropriate holes. I'm thinking the block of metal would be more flexible for positioning. The rotary base that came with the press is typical HF quality, it's ALMOST perfectly flat, just one spot where there is the tiniest bit of rocking. I will have my machinist friend mill that flat. It appears to be perfectly perpendicular to the ram, so that's good news.
