    • 1 14 hole 1/2" tube

    • 3 19 hole 1/2" tube

    • Stack the three 19 hole tubes so that the ends line up.

    • Lay the fourth tube on top, two holes in from one end of the others.

  2. Parts: 2 2 hole x 4 hole plates
    • Parts:

    • 2 2 hole x 4 hole plates

    • 8 7" x 1" bolts

    • 8 1" nuts

    • Put the bolts through one plate, through the frame tubes, and through the other plate. Fasten the nuts loosely to finish.

    • If you're having trouble getting the bolts through, try putting a couple of washers under the bottom tube to lift it up a little bit.

  3. Parts: 4 2 hole x 4 hole plates 6 8" x 1" bolts
    • Parts:

    • 4 2 hole x 4 hole plates

    • 6 8" x 1" bolts

    • 6 1" nuts

    • Slide the bolts through two of the plates, the frame tubing, the remaining plates, and fasten the nuts.

    • Parts of the plates should stick out past the tubes as shown.

    • Leave them a little loose.

    • The pictures show a 7th nut welded on. You'll install that later so don't worry about it just yet.

  4. Weld the drilled out nuts to the plates where shown. Weld the drilled out nuts to the plates where shown.

  6. Parts: 4 13" x 1" threaded rod (TODO link to guide on cutting threaded rod) 4 2 hole x 4 hole plates
    • Parts:

    • 4 13" x 1" threaded rod (TODO link to guide on cutting threaded rod)

    • 4 2 hole x 4 hole plates

    • Put two plates on either sides of the frame tubes and slide the threaded rods through the top four holes so that the rods stick out evenly on each side.

    • Parts:

    • 2 1" x 8" bolts

    • 2 1" nuts

    • Put the bolts through the plates in the 2 holes shown and put on the nuts loosely.

    • Parts:

    • 4 1" nuts

    • 4 1" washers

    • 4 2 hole long 1/4" tube

    • Put two tubes (feet) onto the threaded rods on each side of the frame.

    • Put a washer and nut loosely on each threaded rod.

    • The pictures show feet tubes with three holes, but a two hole long tube will do.

  10. Parts: 8 1" nuts 4 pivot plates (TODO link to guide on making them) (for the ironworker, it's very important that the plates be perfectly flat against each other. If there are any bumps, grind them down.)
    • Parts:

    • 8 1" nuts

    • 4 pivot plates (TODO link to guide on making them) (for the ironworker, it's very important that the plates be perfectly flat against each other. If there are any bumps, grind them down.)

    • Put two pivot plates on each sides of the frame tubes, over the 4 threaded rods, and fasten them with nuts. Leave the nuts very loose.

    • Cut grease channels in the pivot plates. TODO more details.

  11. Parts: 2 ounces of grease (I made up 2 oz, Marcin should verify) Apply grease to both sides of the round parts of the pivot plates on both sides (4 surfaces) and inside the bushing (hole). Squeeze some out using the gun and then smear it around.
