I can recommend Mikes advice Colin. Sandwich the ally between two plates, secured by any means and you will get no warpage. I did this tool box lid for the Walker Bulldog resto project that Weapsim did for the Cairns tank museum.
i couldn't get enough pressure at 100 tons in one go so had to step it along.
Still came out neatly.
