You don't need all those finishing touches to give the machine a test with wood!!! But they do look good.
My wife used pruning shears Greg to cut off one of my fingers. She says I lose one every week until you get your "$§%$&%/ processor working so I can build mine.

BF you don't realize the way I work. If those finishing touches don't get done now and I take it out and it actually works, they'll never be done. Kind of like the backhoe that I thought I better try before painting. Well rust I guess is a colour.
Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.

Oh I do realize. I built a machine to help me shear my sheep. It has two computers and lots of hydraulic functions. I am always wanting to sandblast and paint the machine but first I have to test this or that. So for several years now it waits for a coat of paint.
I have a lot of temporary repairs on things here on the farm that have lasted many many years beyond my time frame to do the permanent fix.

I wouldn't bother - the lanolin from the fleece will protect it
Do you have any pictures of this contraption (or better still, video) - I'd like to see it and exactly what it does. I'm picturing a medieval torture rack but I may have watched too many movies as an impressionable teenager!

Or maybe a different appendage.

Cool! When it's done you can drive it to BF's so he can get some firewood and avoid further beatings!
