I once saw a homemade press in an article where they
modified the jack to work upside down.  That let them use
the threaded end of the jack as a quick adjustment.  I
didn't see the part of the article on how they modified the
jack though.

The plus side on the HF style press's is that you can just
take the jack out and use it as a jack when ever needed.
