Hey all,
Here's my slide kicker on my Piggy
Couldn't afford $1500 so I went to Ace Hardware and spent $45 for materials from plumbing and other fasteners. Not real pretty but it works for me.

Great work! Is that spring strong enough to return the slide?

It's not pretty but it looks like it gets the job done well.

Yup. Plays it tune. Works well. Cheaper than $1500 and functions the same as the expensive one.
