Sherman got a flat - Tubeless try failed

Tried to go tubeless, but no luck.  The short valve was no good, couldn't get the pump on.  I needed a curved valve.  Made one from the old tube.  The tire wouldn't stay near enough to the rim to get the bead to press the rim even with the valve core removed.

I ride mountain bikes and never use tubes because the frequency of flats is higher.  Hope this can get figured out.

Another thing of note, is that my sherman won't turn on now that I put a tube in it.  I hope plugging a charger in will wake it back up.
