Ok I did a down and dirty sketch in an awesome paint program.

This is what it looks like from on top.

This is the sketch of a cut away side view

AH ok thanks man this helps alot. Also just to help you out ^_^() the 'round headed bolts' are more commonly known as carriage bolts.

LOl yeah I know. I did this late last night so my brain was kinda mush. I did't even add the size of bolts and such.

Got the parts to upgrade my shoulders today. I will let you know how it works. Thanks for sharing this.

Could we make this a sticky? I get people asking about it often.

Hey, this may be very basic, but is there any way you could tell me exactly what my "shopping list" at the hardware store should be to make this?

Ok, Ill try to put one together when I get a chance. Also I've made some improvements since I made the first one. I'll post those.

Can't wait! You rock.

Any chance of those updated piston pics Ronan? Using the current specs atm, pretty great so far, just noticing the tendency for the shoulder to dip down bringing the corner up and in towards the chest. I'm gonna try leveling the spot I have the piston on out more, see if that helps.

Sorry, I haven't checked here in awhile. Part of what you might be missing is a platform for them to be on. I have a harness with metal shelf type things.
