The motor mount, after final strengthening gussets have been added

Martin making a small part on the lathe. Many of the parts you've seen in these updates were manufactured right here in our shops, by a number of talented craftsmen. You can't just go buy all this stuff off the shelf...

A closeup of the part being made. The cutter head can be seen in contact with the piece, and a thin sliver of aluminum being removed.

The motor has come a long way. Here the motor mount and water pump (which we showed you in the last update) are in place.

The motor rotated for another view of all the parts we've been showing being built over the past couple of weeks.

Rotated again to see the very bottom. Can you remember what all the various parts are? There'll be a quiz...
