Holy Crap Batman!!!!!!!!!

I've been wanting to acquire a chain breaker for some time. I have a one ton arbor press now, along with the chain breaker anvil for various chain sizes. Can I just buy a breaker punch and use the arbor press? My press already has a 5/16 inch hole drilled in the bottom, which could be enlarged for the breaker punch if needed.

I don't know if the arbor press has enough "umphh" to do the job. I use .325 and 3/8ths pitch chain.

Thanks for any advice. I'd like to save the $50 or so on a new chain breaker if I can.

BTW, this chainsaw forum is the Greatest!!!!
