Bald Eagle BE1005 revisited.....

Cleaning out more boxes from the move and came across my old aluminum base.
Yinz should know me well enough by now that I'm going to get some play time in.
I have the cast iron model I set up for the grandson with a Shade Tree top, so this
one will just swap tops.......First order of business is off to the chop saw. From there,
up on the mill and start throwing chips and doing my typical design work on the fly.
A little deburring and this is where it's at. I will work on the knob tensioners with a
twist, (Pun intended). I made a modification to the lower post and added 3/4" to the
length., to give it more adjustable height, and still keep the post in the hub. Need to
come up with a longer keyway key......Paint is drying on my Super Euber, non skid Big
Foots. Yeah, I made them extra large !!......
