Roller Pinch Bar Lifting Thingy...

In this video I build a device to lift one end of my jointer so that I can easily move it around the shop.

Excellent John, a very useful handmade roller pinch bar for the shop. Another very good build 😉😊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Great work. If you'd told me a year ago I'd be watching tool making videos I'd have laughed at you 😅 very interesting.

Looks like YT deleted my reply? Here it is again.
I will start by moving the jointer and I will work my up to moving the whole world...

I think I would have made the handle removeable for storage. Was everything made of mild steel or did you use something exotic?

[@thehobbymachinistnz]

Hi, it was all made of mild steel. I welded the handle in as the was I was storing it would not need a removable handle. Here is a photo. drive.google.com/file/d/151dshRNt7V8gW0DB3bR31oTbJDeszyJD/view?usp=sharing

Where do you get your blueing agent from in NZ?

[@thehobbymachinistnz]

Thanks for your question. I don't buy the small bottles as they are not very economical. I buy the (almost) 1L bottles. They are not cheap, but the prices vary a lot from different outlets so shop around. These are the two cheapest places I have found, but there may be others.

Cheers Man. I have only been able to find the small bottles, I have just finished a hossfeld bender build with Hydraulic attachment and would love to blue everything. I'll be ordering a few liters. Based in New Plymouth.
Thanks again

[@thehobbymachinistnz]

@@karlshaw9111 No problem. I also did a few videos on a Hossfeld bender build. I'm not sure if you saw then or not.

Too complicated for what could have been simple 2 static caster wheels in back that you can lock,one that rotates in front and you would have 3 contact point that will be stable on any surface . But hey you do you ,if it works for you ,good.

[@blacklisted4885]

Not stable enough for a heavy, tall piece of equipment. You ever see any machinery with 3 legs?

[@thehobbymachinistnz]

Thanks for watching.
