Cutting a broach is a good way to throw away $200.
If the broach is only a little larger than the press, you might find that if you slot the broach into the hole of the part you want to broach before you put both into the press, the first few teeth in the broach will actually "skip" and the whole thing won't require as much clearance. Not guaranteed to work (also depends on material and hole tolerance) but something worth trying at least.
