I pulled these out of your album and rotated them. My brain just can't see sideways.



Are these thumbnail dies in here? Or do you have a Pullmax or something?
Thanks Kerry!
Those are thumbnail dies and they work really well. Every one of the stacked marks is one step on the pedal. My wife goes to the gym, I just do a round of shrinks. One more piece of cake? Sure, I built a fender today.

I don't have a Pullmax but I did build a reciprocating machine based on ideas I took from the group design dedicated shrinker. The shrinking dies I made for that dont work as well as the ones for the foot press though so I keep going back to the calorie burner. These are the only pics I have of it, in it's unfinished state. It's since completed and works wonderfully thanks to the generous contributions from all of the members here. and I have a total of $28.00 in the whole thing. Well that"s a lie, I just bought a foot switch from HF for 14 bucks.
