Nothing new really, just some pictures taken by me now when the parts have arrived to me.
Looking good!

Feels a bit surreal to fabricate my own housings. Don't know which part that wins, the fun, or the fear

Today I've been working on the fixture to the new housings. It also fit stock housings and iron as well.
First up with dowels to match the machine, and countersinked bolts to be out of the way.

Testing with a stock housing to make sure I did it right.

And one of the new ones, let the game begin!
