Hey Folks, Just saw this on craigslist with very little information on its make. The seller calls it a "shaft straightening press" and guesses it's "half a ton". Could this be converted into something useful? Has anyone seen a similar press and maybe know it's original purpose?

Gentlemen, I was very fortunate to get a steal on this press online. After many challenges including the fact that the loading dock had no ramp and no way to get it on the ground and that once it was on a trailer and in my yard it, the trailer, got stuck in the mud. It is now in my workshop. Its not placed yet but it sits sheltered and loved. I have some tooling questions for those in the know. I have looked at a few of these presses that Kerry owns and none of the tool holders are like this one. I can't imagine a tool with a shaft that fits through the hole and then is wide enough to be held by the diamond of the shoe. Am I missing a part? Should I just make a quick change tool plate that bolts to the holes in the corner of the ram? (Pictured) Thanks for the help in advance.
