Frosty Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Nope, definitely not a plumb bob. I'd put money on it being a soils drill point. Of course I COULD be wrong. <wink> Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damion78 Posted October 11, 2014 Author Share Posted October 11, 2014 Yeah I wasn't banking on it being a plumb Bob but I think it will make a nice horn/ mandrel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Yeah I wasn't banking on it being a plumb Bob but I think it will make a nice horn/ mandrel. I think it'd make a nice bic, etc. myself. Of course being as it looks to screw into a length of pipe Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seldom (dick renker) Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 looks like a point used for driving wells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damion78 Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 I would like to find a way to mount it so it could be used vertically and horizontally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damion78 Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 I was thinking some kind of hinge or two separate mounting brackets that could be easily switched in and out. This will be a fun project to figure out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianinsa Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 · Hidden by Glenn, October 12, 2014 - No reason given Hidden by Glenn, October 12, 2014 - No reason given This reminded me of something learned in primary school, " How do you punish a polar bear?" You go out onto the ice and cut a hole, then you sprinkle some frozen peas anound the hole and hide . When the bear comes to the hole for a pea you run up and kick him in the ice hole! As we don't have bears so I can't say I've tried this, thought about trying it out on a hyhena but they'd probably laugh at me :D Link to comment
Damion78 Posted October 17, 2014 Author Share Posted October 17, 2014 Prototype mount 1 needs a little more support in the front to reduce spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
