…getting there, it is a bit of a slog as not as linear a process as it should be. The components are in, where they should be, but they are just floating in space. What’s needed is a chassis around them to connect everything together. I have some sketches on paper and will get them [...]

This is the part where everything has to fit. CAD modelling or general arrangement drawing is a catalyst for decisions. No little ‘it’ll work’ or ‘that’ll fit’ can hide at this stage. Everything has to go in and everything has to fit.

Ddeciding how all the components are going to fit in, it is a great help having a hollow, life-size model to refer to. A quick prototype of the envisioned mechanism used to lift the ‘head’ up. Testing backlights on the meter display.
