Did you by any chance read the instructions?

You didn't stop to think this deal through........now you don't have an excuse to quit for the day and drink a beer!:drinkup:

2017 build off Renegade

Honestly, I haven't used a 4 jaw chuck in probably 20 yrs. Why?.....because 2 of my lathes are set up with 6 jaw adjust-tru chucks. They will clamp up with uniform pressure and distort things less with 6 jaws versus 3 or 4, plus the chuck itself can be adjusted on the back plate. This saves so...

Use # 7 1/2-8's shot. It probably won't take over 4-5 lbs, depending on your handle bar length. Don't worry about it flattening or going to dust....it's no being constantly pounded like a ad blow hammer. Lead has much better dampening qualities than steel. Try a gun shop or reloading supply, or...

That musta been an early version......the one I saw had twin gas turbines. I actually saw it at the local drag strip when he raced Don Garlits. That was a looong time ago....

I made one from an old gazebo canvas. For inside use, don't use plastic or a cheap tarp, you need something that will breathe. If you use something that is water tight, it won't let moisture escape.

Looks to me that the crank is correct for the ball bearing type ratchet driver. The shroud may not work though...

Walmart....

I've had the same problem lately. Back in March, a mini tornado wiped out my toy shed. It was a 8x12 Lifetime Poly Shed(basically like a Rubbermaid), but actually a pretty decent no maintenance building. The high winds basically sheared it right off the floor, and exploded it and wiped out...
