good work!! but..... you need to add 2 pressure tabs/arm that hold the line on the reel so it dont unwind. some wenches have them most dont usualy bent spring steel, but with your skils you can make most anything to do it. my china wonkey press needs one, but I just havent done it. the table on it is way out of square,I need to cut the 2 angle iron peices and square it up and reweld with better support., I might widen it a little too. or do a kick out in the center so I can fit bigger objects through it if need be. I may just make a new table not sure yet. or just do a few pie cuts and push it out in the center then reweld. a budy of mine has one like that from the factory( usa made back in the 70's) the china pins are also soft and bend eazely.I dont know if it's possiable to harden them or not.it's worth a try. keep up the good work!!
Love the way you doubled upon the spool and thanks for sharing that idea. Those bearing are great for other things as well. Could you please identify a part number or some other way of sourcing them?
Ive seen some people just use one cable to do it.I havent decided yet on how I will do it.
