...I don't have a photo, but the first one I put together was an 18" length of 1/2" all thread rod, with large fender washers to press the cups. Smaller washers between those and the nuts that drive the washers to press are the rest of it. It's more awkward to use than a real headset press, but works well enough for occasional home use with regular (not exotic) headsets.
