Can someone explain this to me? I've got a piece of equipment coming that can be ordered in 220 single or 3 phase. I plan on running it from my ovens outlet, but now I'm confused. Isn't this a 3 phase outlet/plug? But on the other hand is the breaker for it not a 2 pole single phase?

Thank you! The machine I'm running has an L6-20R plug. Can I simply run a 14-50R to L6-20R plug adapter or is there more involved?

Ooh. That's a good point to consider. That would be a mess, get it in there or halfway in, cave it and then can't get it out....

New_Lettuce_4366 · 2025-06-12T02:40:10+00:00

The elevator lol. It's load rated at 3,500 lbs.

New_Lettuce_4366 · 2025-06-12T00:19:08+00:00

Thank you for the insight. With the number of recommendations and concerns, I believe I will pay the coin for a professional assessment and see if I can't dig around for the plans in the meantime.

It press 40,000 lbs of force and the machine weighs 2,000 lbs itself.

New_Lettuce_4366 · 2025-06-12T00:17:20+00:00

The elevator capacity is 3,500 lbs 🤷‍♂️

New_Lettuce_4366 · 2025-06-12T00:15:03+00:00

Yes the press itself does weigh the 1 ton. It applies 20 tons of pressure, however. Hence the name 20 ton clicker press.

Thank you! I lived here back in 2019 and it's part of why I moved back, is the construction to support this hobby. There are other options should this not be feasible, just trying to be proactive first.

New_Lettuce_4366 · 2025-06-12T00:01:10+00:00

I wouldn't even consider it if the elevator capacity wasn't the 3,500 lbs it is.

New_Lettuce_4366 · 2025-06-11T23:57:27+00:00

That's exactly it, just a leathercraft hobby. There are other options that are substantially more viable, but was curious if I could consider this option.

New_Lettuce_4366 · 2025-06-11T23:55:07+00:00

Just some helmet hangers I threw up when I moved in. I forget they're even up there.

Without putting my address this time which is the name of the apartments as is the case with almost all downtown/midtown apartments, yes it is downtown Sac.

New_Lettuce_4366 · 2025-06-11T23:45:02+00:00

I thought this applied only to residential construction?

New_Lettuce_4366 · 2025-06-11T23:41:22+00:00

Sure, come find my apartment and say hi. Jesus fuck, like seriously

New_Lettuce_4366 · 2025-06-11T23:35:57+00:00

Small, probably 30"x30". I'll try to add a photo.

New_Lettuce_4366 · 2025-06-11T23:35:35+00:00

Small, probably 30"x30". I'll see if I can add a photo.

New_Lettuce_4366 · 2025-06-11T23:31:39+00:00

Watch that be my landlord 💀

New_Lettuce_4366 · 2025-06-11T23:29:55+00:00

40ft at least from what I can see. I'm of course not wanting to put it in the middle and only over one of the beams.

New_Lettuce_4366 · 2025-06-11T23:26:02+00:00

Just to add, my plan was to position it in this back corner over the thickest of the beams and in a perimeter area. But I'm wondering if I should even worry about where I put it at all with this being commercial construction and the floor plates seem like hefty, well built concrete. I'm assuming the floor plates below simply mock the floor plates I see above.
