..Great timing Phillip. i was just thinking about making one of these, drawn out on paper and just trying to figure out how to do the humps for the slide. Prototypes are the best teaching tools. Well done sir...!
I think a backing/bolster plate would make this go a lot smoother. If you have another cold bar you can use to support everything but the humps I suspect you can push them out a lot more accurately than I did here.
Hey , thanks for allowing us to go along on the ride of your experiment-ion , learn something every day. Good job
Thanks!
Very clever way of using your rest to heat up your angle iron. Great project!
Thanks!

Why not use a hard hammer and save a lot of messing
Very painful to watch.
It was pretty painful to do. There's always a risk doing something the first time on camera.
