914 Wizard? No way. I got too much to learn.  Group: Members Posts: 4,099 Joined: 21-April 03 From: Gig Harbor, WA Member No.: 598  |
Building this has been a blast. I have certainly learned a lot. Jake has been very patient and given me plenty of rope but, when I've started to wander he's tugged me back in line.
Deck Height has been a revelation. My first attempts were all over the place. After working on this for a total of 8 hours I really believe we've got a handle on it. I've learned a bunch. First, these are very small dimensions. Jake wanted the deck within .004" on all 4 cylinders. We really struggled with this. Check this out a single sheet of paper is between .002 and .003.
