Making some progress on the towers. There are a ton of steps and I’m trying to balance production vs ruining everything:)

Dual vises are nice but if you mess up you probably messed up two towers.

The jaws are doweled to locate the towers. The cap and base are doweled and will stay together throughout the whole process. Cut one side, flip, cut second side.

Action shot 🙂

After a trip through the vibratory finisher the cam bearings will be bored and the rocker shaft bores will be reamed.

Still lots to do.

The middle row are mine. I proof the code on them. If it’s good then I move on to the rest. So far so good.
