After a fairly short Saturday in the workshop, we now have an idea what this creation is going to look like...

The word "Yikes" sprung to mind when we managed to get things into a test fit for the first time.

There's a (little) bit of milling work that needs to be done on the drum before we can mount that properly, but we're probably going to send that to one of our new-found machine shops (because they're proving infinitely more reliable than our previous choices).

We sent them the files for some parts on Sunday last week..... and I picked up the finished parts on Friday.

The price wasn't bad either for a 1-week turnaround.

We are so painfully close to the point where it's no longer "safe" for us to continue testing...... and when we get to that point.... we know we're onto something.
