Yep those are a pain. You have to figure out which end has the slanted cut on the end and pull that with the picks. Buy a couple of sets of picks with the rubber grip handles as you will break one or three before you get the hang of it. Much patience may be required.

How does an electric forklift work with electric controls? We have the ones with a thumb control for lifting the mast. you rock the thumb control forward a small amount and moves slow, farther and it is faster. It will still deliver the same lifting capacity. or in this case pressing capacity...
Let me see
You are at harbor freight, I would get me a 1/2 inch drill with variable speed and reverse, take that apart and tinker to figure out how all that would fit into my evil plan with parts in hand. :)
Cheap and good for a self taught experiment.

Thes just work for pipe and work well for me for your situation. They will exert more force as you crank on them to get the pipe out of the hole.

Could you use a timer in the circuit so you would not have to hold the button down?
Like this?
A little crude but it does get to the point.
You may not want to. I am not an expert on the subject it might make a little more wow factor. ( yeah like it ain't an excellent lookin project already...
Lead bar shape. I melted wheel weights down for lead bullets. A piece of angle iron with ends welded on it makes a good mould. Melt the weights and scoop off the clips and pour it in. The gold one you have is just icing on the cake.

If you have not you may want to try a different ground clamp if you still have the one that resembles a battery charger clamp. Or use a pair of vise grips to pinch the wire down good just to see.
Looks like you have all the rest covered.
Also check to see if your wire rollers are set...
That stuff is nasty to get off, Use the most coarse abrasive you can find, 16 or 24 and take the guard off and lay it as flat as possible on there and give it a go, the smears are from it getting hot. Coarse to get it off and finer to clean up.

Ok a few details if you do not mind, I see thermowells and wires. What do you have going on there? A controller of some kind or just monitoring?
