Got some more work on the trigger wheel today.
Hoisted the dividing head off the shelf and set to cutting the trigger pattern in the manual mill.
Unfortunately, the above picture is about as far as we got before things went pear shaped. We fought a few different issues for a while, and when we finally made it to the last slot, it became apparent that the teeth were not evenly divided. I think the trigger wheel had been slipping imperceptibly, so by the time we got to the end, it was too late. Definitely a drag, but such is life. Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the technology. Better than it was before. Better...stronger...faster.
