Some of my "inventions" & "tinkerings"

[IndianaSmith]

I'd mentioned about my holster for my AutoMax holster. I have shoulder, neck & back problems, and it was uncomfortable for me to "draw" the pp from my toolbelt. Since it was on my hip, and because of the length of the pp, I dad to lift if to an uncomfortable height.

I made this which lowers the pp to my leg, and can carry a probe as well. Now I only have to lift it 2", and it is positioned at a much lower height on my side. I use a leather bootlace on the lower end to tie it above my knee.

Very clever, Smitty! I particularly like the plug gun!

[IndianaSmith]

Thanks! I get alot of comments on the "metal men", they're all welded rod, nuts, washers & wire.

Here's a small version of my 250, made to fit into a trailer hitch receiver.

Lots of creativity from everyone!

[IndianaSmith]

Coldfeet- That's neat! What did you make it from? Looks like the star of the "Predator", and you're right.......don't think I'd want to run into him

The plug gun is a cut-down caulking gun with a pc of 2.5" exhaust pipe welded to the body of the gun. I welded a larger washer to the one already on the stem of the gun to be sure it pushed-out the entire plug, also welded on a footpad to help sink it in the ground.
