Sorry about that. I didn't take any pictures of what I did. I attached a link to another forum that shows what he did.

That crane is bad a$$, I made one about the same color but it's no where near as stout.Last edited by hephaestus; 04-14-2015, 02:20 AM.

My Fibromyalgia is getting no better and its a real struggle to use the drawbar on the Bridgeport so I made a simple power drawbar, like many other home made types it uses a 3/8" "butterfly" air wrench.
Seems to work OK so far all it really needs is a decent automatic oiler, I did fit an in-line one but it wasn't a success.

Nice job Paul !!
Just a few suggestions for what they're worth:
1) Have you considered using Oilite bearings for those kingpins? It would take the nuisance out of having to keep them lubed and it appears you are collecting some overflow on the baseplate.
2) A rectangular cover, possibly made from plastic, would keep dirt from collecting on the mechanism. It could be slotted for the handle and airline and attached to the baseplate. it looks like the aluminum block could be shortened considerably on both ends to make the cover more compact.
Once again, a VERY impressive piece of work. Many thanks for sharing!

The VNMG holder actually has the dovetail too far from the tip of the toolLast edited by Spin Doctor; 04-26-2015, 06:38 PM.Forty plus years and I still have ten toes, ten fingers and both eyes. I must be doing something right.
