I made a few. Still have my last generation. Has wooden rollers at each
end so that the wire could easily be pulled through the holes without
binding. Has a wooden lever/cam that bowed the end bar in. Has a sheet of
plywood that holds the wax foundation up to the right height for embedding
with a 6-V battery-charger and simple embedding jig with a momentary switch
on top.
Every time that I think of throwing it away (since I haven't used in many
years), just can't bring myself to do so!
