some more progress


Here is what I have managed to get done this weekend. JBG was supposed to have gotten me my perches and I would have been done... Baaaahhh


I started by mocking up the lower traction bar mount.



Then the pieces were cut from 1/4" plate with a band saw and some grinding and tacked together



After finish welding I moved to the upper and built a little jig to help keep me in  line




I then mocked up the upper mounts from cardboard as well..




Here are some shots of the completed mounts.





I then went on to build a straightening table like the one in the earlier link.





I went ahead and worked on straightening some but I'll have to finish after getting the perches finish welded.

I was able to get within around .015 total run-out using a bottle jack some chain and some heat.
