Title: New spring compressor
Post by: Perry on September 03, 2010, 04:34:04 PM

The one I made a while back started to show signs of age and fatigue so I made a new one today. I haven't tried it yet and it looks crude but it should get the job done.

Nice! I've been working on my first today. Gotta wait for my drill to recharge before I can get back to it.

I love the split in the center support. Been trying to figure out a way to do something similar with mine. Your solution is very nice... might have to adapt the idea to whatever I happen to have on hand. I also really like the simplicity of it all.

Thanks for posting! It's giving me ideas. :)

Looks like it will perform very well.  Git' er done.
