Rotation will be via my arm and a long 1/2" drive bar, a health and safety nightmare I know but I have used the method before and as long as a lot of caution is used, it works well. Bolt the whole assembly to a nice thick bit of plate, add some bolt down holes and all is ready. It also came in handy when I welded the plates together.
I then turned the bottom flange so that it runs true with the top plate just to make positioning it on the main plate easier before welding.
It's now all welded together ready for machining.
