HOMEMADE - Grease Ram 

Gday, I try to keep the videos to max of 30 mins but sometimes that just doesn't happen, Thanks for watching, Cheers

When doing long format as required, viewers such as myself LOVE it when the creator watches through and writes down "Time Stamps" that can be offered *At the time the video goes up* so (just makimg up a randon example): 00:00:00 - 00:04:16 Project intro 00:04:17 - 00:07:48 Made a poor choice (lol) 00:07:49 - 00:11:32 Sorted how to pull the fat out of the fire 00:11:33 - 21:18:18 Source more materials from "Empire of dirt" and maybe have to buy 6 Torx Style cap-head screws - and wait 2 weeks to get them. etc. This is because, many of your viewers (such as myself) fimd your content very relatable - but can't always watch a longer video in less than 3-5 sittings. Having that index, my friend, will really DRIVE UP the number of FULL VIEWS" you get - and what with the time it takes to do all the filming - I honestly believe taking the time to watch through, and set a list of very accurate "time stamp indexes" - one time - will really make your content SHINE - because it's so easy for your viewers to find where they left off, and continue watching.

@MattysWorkshop - Give it a try. If it doesn't work to your favor, (or favour as the case may be), I'll refund you every penny you've paid me so far! 🤣

Track adjusters on a lot of heavy equipment use grease rams. You pump grease into the adjuster to tighten the tracks.

The latest cordless grease guns from Milwaukee and dewalt can go up to 10,000 psi. I imagine that’d give you more then enough oomph in that little ram :)

Gday, 1 o-ring seems to be doing the job so far mate, Cheers

Gday, So far the single o-ring has done the job but if it ever gives trouble its not hard to make a new piston with more grooves, Cheers

I have done hydraulics for many years. the support must be at the top, the tolerance between the piston and the cylinder must not be too large .. normally there is a guide band on the piston
