Building A High-End Trophy For Less Than $2: Step-by-step DIY
I set out to build my own championship trophy for my annual backyard croquet tournament. Every championship needs a proper trophy or medal to go to the winner, but not everyone wants to spend a ton of money on one. After finding out the trophy I wanted was $700, I decided to make my own!
I took an old block of wood and a trip to the local Goodwill and if I must say so myself, I think the end result turned out amazing.
Follow along as I do woodworking, engraving, and master thrift store purchasing in making a professional trophy for only $1.99.
00:00 Intro - Why did I do this?

    Typical Chinese engineering.

    You need a PTO overdrive protector or a one way hydraulic valve to bypass the motor when it's been stopped. The box at 22:50 is a cross over relief valve. If properly configured when one side gets overpressure it will vent to the other side. You can adjust it to allow the motor to spin down slower, but not as good as a PTO OD protector or a one-way valve.
