I can't help with the compound linkage mod but this press is way more user friendly if you add a handle to the turret. I drilled and tapped the turret on two sides with a 1/4x28 (I did two sides so I can rotate the turret and use two different cal die sets with a switch of the handle). Then took a 4" long 1/4x28 hex head bolt and screwed it in. I epoxied a round plastic ball on the end as a comfortable handle. The ball was purchased at a marine store and is a replacement for boat control handles. It looks and works like the later Lyman turret presses.
