Didn't quite make today's work quota, wanted to have a rolling chassis by midnight.....still got pretty close all in all.
It's only loosely all held in place and some of the stays are not in place, those with a recessed location fixing as opposed to tabs through the inner frame plate.
Tomorrow, later today, I'll add the top hat bearings and set it up on the jig and solder all it all it. To be fair the cruciform stay and inside cylinder assembly keep the frames pretty much bang on square.
It's all looking a bit bland at the moment but will start to come alive once the main frame overlays go on and I add the rest of the missing stays and cast horn guides, after that the details will begin to make it more interesting.
