Flipper

My take on the plug flipper Tagger built. PVC is easy to work with. Could even hook up a motor to it if you wanted. Just makes it easier to spin the thing 180 than to flip by hand. The lazy man's way I guess.

Couple more. Next thing to tackle is a spinner. Cover both methods of epoxying that way. Paul

U king of the flippers,, yours is way better.. no more dropping sticky plugs on the floor .. I've been wrapping a little piece of foil around barrel swivels to protect them from epoxy . Had a couple freeze up after numerous plugs ..

I thought of it but didn't want to seem like I was off my rocker. Probably a short pause every 45 degrees

Question the rack looks mint paul

and when i blew up the pic's i was noticing the hardware you
used to go thru the two main up-right poles on the frame...
what is that? comprised of...something you made at the shop or
something that you can buy at the hardware...and if so perhaps
you could describe it....the rest is rather self explanatory...
the only thing i would've /might have done differently was to
use the newer vice grip with the self adjusting setting on the jaws.

Raven it is a sleeve I made of brass. I took a piece of pvc stock and turned it down and drilled a hole in it to accept a .500 dia. ss pin. press fit. I then took a pvc 3 way connector and cemented the the plug of pvc into it. When dry I pressed the pin into the plug. I then drilled out the upright and then turned a bushing made of brass and pressed it into the upright. Then inserted the pin, slip fit, into the upright. Both sides typical. As far as the vise grip I think you are talking about the other holder post. The vise grip jaw was a bitch to drill. I had to use a carbide drill bit, hardened stuff. I was going to weld it but figured if it didn't work I would still have a vise grip to use.
