    Terry, That's pretty close..........I run the jack upside down......so
it's centered and the handle is on the bottom.  I use the side crank jacks
from Fulton.

I had some left over from some treadle hammers I made the same
way........this is what pretty much started the whole thing having those
extras kicking around in the way.
