I picked up a used crankanstein 3D from a fellow HBT member and as usual over did it on the end product! I have a buddy that was able to help me out with the aluminum and a local welder (I am only set up to weld mild steel) who majorly hooked me up. I will post more pics from start to finish but the basic parts list is: 1 Dayton Gearmotor used from CL ($30), 1 Dayton Drum Switch ($30), 1 used barebones CrankandStein 3D ($100), bunch of free aluminum and a whole lot of time! The motor may be underpowered at 1/6HP and 46 in lbs of torque but we'll see......
