Hello John, yes this was a consideration when I fitted the 2 bushings on the ends to prevent loss of the locking link. With one hand on the bushings and one on the locking link there seems to be enough grip to prevent unwanted rotation. If I find this insufficient I plan on welding short pipe sections to the ends of the bushings to form a T handle.

Cheers

Thanks OZ, I appreciate the support.

Got 250 lbs. of fine sand to mix my green sand with today. Will eventually go with my own local sand but to avoid screening and washing I decided to go with purchased sand to start off with. A few more accessories and were ready to try this out. :clap:

I got sand for mortar from the quarry it is quite fine. The only thing wrong with 250 lbs of sand is having to mix it!  :D
inthesticks:
That may be similar to what I have, 85 mesh morter and jointing sand. I have sand pockets on my property that are finer than that but I don't want to get sidetracked with its preperation right now. 250 lbs? na thats a morning stroll before coffee, as long as I don't have to do it every day. :whip:  :)

Cheers Tom
