     I've used a drill from the start, a 9.6 Volt Makita - 
unfortunately, that's one of the wimpier drills.  Saw a guy in 
Medora, ND, last summer who had the whole thing in hand.  He had 
mounted a circlar wheel of about 15"-18" diameter on a 3/4" socket 
extension or a piece of a cutoff crank rod.  That way, he could use 
the wheel to start the stowed jack (which should be tightly up), use 
the drill for speedy passage through the easy part, then use the 
wheel again for the final tightening.  Wish I'd taken a picture of it.
