I'm amazed PLA is able to take that kind of pressure. I imagine you printed it with solid infill.

It ended up being solid just because of the standard wall thicknesses, but PLA prints are quite strong from a compressive standpoint. That said, I am sure I am not applying the entire 6 tons. I have done similar experiments with a bench vice with similar results too, it's just a little harder to line everything up give the jaw depth.
