This a try for a better set case for my chipper shredder , looks like half a home built drill press with a few mistakes , the hose clamps instead of a wing nut removable block across the front and back of the drill for one ,

Working on gizmo's I have the shredders I built before , here area couple of Chippers , this one cut a 1/2 inch limb and will cut larger , It got to cold out for me to try much more , But ,, it works and runs real smooth ,

Here is a mill 2shaft locks ,a ball bearing ,still needs a snap ring but I am waiting for the seal to finish drying , it will always look as it does after the sealing of the entire can , blade is a hole cutter ,
I will set this up as a solar powered robot ,,
