The press incorporates a press cylinder having a press cylinder bore for removably receiving a sleeve defining a sleeve bore. The sleeve bore is adapted to receive the compressible material between a first and a second forming tool. The fluid from the pressure source is applied to the first and second forming tools to press the compressible material therebetween.
