Sled for 1 inch SuperX Mortar

Going for function. Don't really care about looks. Just want to fire the thing! May trim side plates a little and add 2nd support plate underneath with wheels.

Thanks for help DD.

Thanks for watching guys - my little bandsaw wasn't up for the 1" yellow pine - had to go old skool but got some good cuts. Have some ideas to clean it up - will show another video finishing the sled but will be a few days. I could not get the youtube player to appear - has something changed in GB's that does not allow this anymore or did I do something wrong? Thanks for helping DD. That is a massive sled for your ball cannon. I tend to like the simplest form that works - anything else with a modern cannon takes away from the cannon in my opinion.

I wondered where the electrical cord was for that saw you were using. :D

Added: Douglas, I can't get the Y-T screen to embed, but it used to work fine.
RIP John. While on vacation July 4th 2013 in northern Wisconsin, he was ATVing with family and pulled ahead of everyone and took off at break-neck speed without a helmet. He lost control.....hit a tree....and the tree won.  He died instantly.

The one thing that you can almost always rely on research leading to, is more research.

Video URL : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODGa81KmyUo

Use only the stuff after the v= in this case ODGa81KmyUo

then click the youtube button and get this:
Code: [Select]
[yt=425,350][/yt]
make it look like this :
Code: [Select]
[yt=425,350]ODGa81KmyUo[/yt]
then it should play like this :

[yt=425,350]ODGa81KmyUo[/yt]




So start with this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ttuy-mUwSEs&feature=player_embedded

Edit by cutting off the http://www.youtube.com/watch?v= 

Then cut off  &feature=player_embedded so all that's left is Ttuy-mUwSEs.

 Hightlight Ttuy-mUwSEs and the click on the you tube icon.

Thanks for posting that DD - I tried to figure it out a while ago and gave up.  I guess it was just too easy, but it's not something I'd normally try, since I tend to type out all the scripts I use without using the buttons.
