Today, I finished fabrication on all of the custom components for Cpt. Hook. Originally, I had intended to fabricate the majority of the parts using the CnC mini-mill at the hacker space in town. Unfortunately this machine was down, and I ended up fabricating all the parts by hand using a band saw and drill press. At the end of the day I managed to hit a 1/16" tolerance on every part, and I doubt for this machine there will be any issues. Here are the finished parts in all their glory:
I regret not documenting the fabrication process more. For next year, I am seriously considering a full build video detailing all the construction steps.
