December 10         and now we can see the end of the year ahead of us and the pressure is on

It is one thing to build up a little set-tup and see things you were hoping to see, but it is another matter to replicate that magic.   My digital mill really helps out

Guide my hands dear Lord that I might be all that is required of me

The skills that Bessler learned when he was building all those pieces for a giant pipe organ would have served him well and he dove into the fabrication of the wheels.

Having built actually hundreds of parts over the years, it seems a simple task to build up the identical systems that will take us forward.... but its not

There is nothing that can prepare your  mind and hands for all that will required.   20 hours to build one part, and 20 minutes to build the next.   Push forward, there is no option.  If the direction you have chosen to walk is the correct one, if the materials will hold up?   So, many unknowns and parts that have never been walked only adds to the complex business that we are chasing.

I am struggling to build even the most simple of pieces in a uniform and replaceable feature.  one part can be used in multiple places and fits perfectly and performs a single task in all positions.

3 of the 4 mechanisms  are sitting in my living room tonight and  it feels great to be this close.

No working wheel as of this date, so for now    I am still seeking for I am
