Thingamajigs
Started work today on what I know now to be the guides for the tamper head when working on curves and points.
Each one is going to be fabricated out of dozens of pieces of shaped styrene.
I've begun by making up the two main vertical rams.
And here they are in place.
Very intricate work but very satisfying.
