I've been using a Metalsmith's press for the etched kits I've built and have no complaints. Doing it again, I'd mount it on a longer piece of wood so there was more sticking out at the front, currently the front edge of the wood is behind the handle (see below) when forming rivets which can on occasion cause the whole thing to tip forward. I suppose you could mount the press in a vice or some such which would negate that issue...or you could press more lightly...
I have got a GW press to try out too but as is Murphy's law, as soon as I bought it, the next kits to take favour required no riveting Truth be told, I don't think you'll be disappointed with either.
I like the mods Overseer, very nifty
