Looks good.I've got a similar one, still to find a use for it but its there when I need it!
Stick a steering wheel on the end as its easier to control than a hand crank.

Beetlejac ,

I just stumbled on this old post of yours , I was thinking of making one of these , as I need to fabricate a few panels for a short oval car . What did the materials cost compared to buying one , and do you have any dimensions or advice on construction . Many thanks , regards Al.

That looks far to flexy to me.

Hi Alan,l never finished it off,you can have it if you want,you just have to get some die's machined up.

That could be very useful , I can get the dies made , but the gears may have been a problem , let me know how much you want for it - many thanks , regards Al
