1. A press frame module comprising:
a substantially planar body with opposite faces, an outer edge, and an inner edge, wherein the inner edge defines an opening that extends through the body, and the outer edge defines a top, a bottom, and opposite first and second ends of the body; and
a base assembly pivotably coupled to the body and configured to support the body on an underlying support surface, wherein the base assembly includes a first base pivotably coupled with the first end of the body and a pedestal coupled with the first base, and wherein the pedestal is configured to permit horizontal movement of the first base in a first direction generally parallel to the faces of the body while restricting horizontal movement of the first base in a second direction generally perpendicular to the faces of the body.
