I've assembled my own press similar to the one pictured on the link, but instead of the bronze fittings, I just used some large washers that press on the outside edge of the race. I like the bronze fittings though! I'll stop by my LHS (local Hardware shop) on the way home!

As far as the race setting, I found a brass tube that just fits over a 1-1/8 steerer tube. I rounded off the sharp edges and bang away!
