I've used the wedge mechanism to make a tool to raise dents in shotgun barrels.

Nice work Bruce. I was trying to think where have I seen that scarfed wedge before??.. handle bars in to the headstock, and the long adjustable pole for my pool scrubber??

A large smooth wooden disk would be my choice for safety & always accessible from the front.
