Sure, if you don't mind all the downsides that have been pointed out about this style of press. If you're going to be broaching a lot, get a 4 or 5 ton lever operated arbor press that will allow you to broach in one shot. You'll spend twice as much but it will be 5-10 times faster and easier to setup.
