Do what you like Mat, I like listening to your politically correct banter, a breath of fresh air, with every one else being to scared to speak these days. Keep 'em coming.

7:37 if you put a strap around the base just long enough to slip a 2x10 board, you can use the board to lever on the tire much like you did with the bead breaker.
