If you like steam toy accessory machine workshops and you're looking for the one monster machine that tops them all.... here it is... 😁 !!!
Those "large" eccentric punch presses of BING and DOLL are looking like "kids" in comparison...

This is Jupp... he is 17,5cm or 7in tall at 1:10 scale, representing a nearly 6ft tall guy and just testing out this beasty 250ton friction screw punch press...

YES, its a real working friction screw punch press in scale 1:10, but not a jeweller's machine...
A jeweller would use a lever punch press for the job, not a machine.
This is a unique masterpiece, manufactured at the highest level of fine mechanic skills.

Similar quality model machines have been seen only by those legends of machine model builders like Al Osterman or Barry Jordan...
Here a pic of the nice backside...

Until yet I only owned one manual driven flywheel screw punch press... a mechanic's graduation masterpiece... all my other are eccentric presses...

I wonder if there are other "monster screw presses" are out there among your guy's collections...?

A very nice collection of drive models. You are to be envied.

By the way, I was still working on the big brother of the screw press. But that was in another life.

Would you say that this is a SCHULER or another maker...?

Unfortunately, I cannot make any statement about the manufacturer of your model. This model is unfortunately not known to me.
With the "big brother" I meant an old screw press that was in the locksmith's shop where I worked part-time about 30 years ago.The locksmith's shop was still partly equipped with machines as in the 1920s. There was even a transmission that was driven by a large electric motor.
