ehertzfeld Posted April 19, 2006 Posted April 19, 2006 Any of you Johnny Bucket owners could take a good picture of the release mechanism. I need to make one for my "Elon" bucket. I was using the straight rod type, but it doesn't work like I had hoped. I'm going to get a lot of loom this summer, so I need it to work well. Thanks Elon

ehertzfeld Posted April 20, 2006 Author Posted April 20, 2006 Well after lots of thinking, looking online, and a bit of starring at mine, here is what I came up with.

I had a small round section of lawn in the middle of my driveway, the was not level. Since we move in three years ago, I have wanted to level it. Well it's pretty level now! The bucket dug right it and scooped it right up:D. Elon
Roy Posted April 20, 2006 Posted April 20, 2006 Nice. I'm sure your "Elon" bucket cost a lot less than a genuine JB. ;)

Can't wait to order the loom now!:D Elon
