Slow and steady wins the race. The deck went on today.

Next, I set to making the manual blade lever. This is a field-hockey-stick-shaped cam levers that allows a wimpy fellow like me to put all my weight on the bar and actually raise the blade with no air. First, I sweated together some strip. Then I cut it with the fancy FastTracks saw.

The shape was filed to shape and the holes drilled per the D&RGW drawing. Then the piece was heated and heated and heated until it fell apart.

Two matching pieces! Time to break for dinner.
