Rotisserie Construction

It's finally finished! I added a few features at the last minute that I thought would be helpful in the future, such as lock bolts for the brace between the tripods to hold the brace solidly rigid. I also finished painting the thing, which is no small feat considering every time I put a coat of paint on anything, it falls over, bugs land it in, Julia decides to use the leaf blower to clean the driveway, whatever. I'll let the photos speak for themselves.

Finished product. Though there is only 1 bar between the tripods, I have two with a sleeve
to join them in the middle to accommodate various size vehicle bodies.

Finished Rotator Sleeve
Arrow A: Retaining ring with set screw to hold pin in sleeve
Arrow B: Lock bolt to prevent rotation (safety first!)
Arrow C: Lock pin for safety (will be replaced with actual pin instead of bolt)
Arrow D: Grease fitting
