Repairs and Remakes

All week it's been fixing and shoehorning, shaving down or shimming up. I came up with a novel (for me) way of making small grooves with a hacksaw blade. The students were celebrating that I was going to become rich from my invention until I reminded them that a hacksaw blade costs a buck.

A number of hydraulic motors had to be re-bracketed and re-pulleyed and a hydraulic friction testing piston needed reinforced. So it has gone.
