What's nice is they don't generate TOO much force, so I'm less likely to screw up. Plus, it's always handy to have an extra clamp around!
You can also check http://www.pennstateindustries.com and http://www.woodturnerscatalog.com - I know they both carry pen presses, and I am pretty sure they will both ship to Australia.
Finally, hopefully Darley will check in; he's in your neck-of-the-woods (or world, as the case may be) and may be able to give you a lead on a more local supplier.
