GETTING A HANDLE ON IT
This is a simple handle I made for blocks to support them while setting them up in machines that require you to level or tram with a jack screw. It threads into a cylinder head bolt hole. I use it on the surfacer, lifter true machine and it is also effective at the boring machine where the block will rise to a deck location fixture. It reduces the chance of the block crashing down if the jack screw were to slip while you are setting up. And the extra mechanical advantage makes the block much easier to handle.
