    I got some more done.
    The Frame is all welded up, the Tailstock and the Top Wheel are mounted.
    I'll go find a old drill bit with a #4 taper to build the cradle for the Lower Wheel off.
    Once that is done I'll shim and adjust it, so I can start using it.
    And at a later date I'll put a Quick Release on it.

    Yeah... there is 20Ft of 4X4 1/4" Wall square Tubing in it,
    and almost 30Ft of 2X4 1/8" rectangular...
    The mounting plate for the Tailstock is a 10X14 5/8" piece of plate.
    And the mounting plate for the TopWheel is 1/2" thick.

    The thing is HEAVY!!
