Spine Tester - New Design
« on: January 24, 2013, 11:23:00 PM »
I have been thinking about this new design for several years and finally figured it out - so I built one for a friend of mine.  It uses a pneumatic cylinder to raise the weight and is very efficient.

Dang Kevin, now you've taken the best spine tester I've ever had and made it perfect.  Love the zero'ing method you've done here....much better than a screw.
