Update from June 2022
Thanks to Silverback, I upgraded the tool with a torque multiplier. It now is easily portable and puts down over 5000 ft/lbs of torque. You now can remove a badly stuck spinner with your baby toe.:cool:

Upgrade
I added another little upgrade. A Grade 8 clamping system that holds the torque multiplier steady as a rock (it had been torquing over a bit when you cranked the handle). The clamping system goes all the way through the three stacked 2 x 10's and the torque multiplier's arm pushes down while the clamp pulls up which results in no movement. Of course it disassembles quickly for easy transport. Mucho Coolo. :cool:

That big ass clamp is courtesy of Alabama Clamp Company in Mobile. They were a pleasure to deal with and didn't bat an eye when I told them what I wanted and that it had to be strong enough to hold down a freight train.:cool:
