Brianna Log: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 22:43, 21 August 2011

This is a log tracking my (Brianna Kufa's) progress at Factor E Farm

Today I started the log and recorded what I've done here in the past couple of days.

I updated the Soil Loading Drawer page fabrication instructions to make it the most modern version.

I finished welding the cylinder to the press foot on the back side.
I began making the Soil Loading Drawer for the 4th press. This proved to be a little frustrating as the metal we ordered all was about an inch longer than how we ordered it, so I had to make nearly twice as many cuts to prepare them.
I helped Marcin raise the roof for the new workplace. We stayed up till 4am raising it inch by inch with a farm jack. We screwed in tall 2x4's to hold it in place as we were lifting it.

I finished the two frame/cylinder components of two of the 4 CEB presses I am building

Me with the 2 ready to assemble ones, and the third, already assembled one in the background
. These are ready to be erected (meaning adding arms, legs, hopper assemblies).

Ensuring the cylinder is perfectly square with the press foot before welding it.

I began welding the cylinder to the press foot on the fourth CEB. See Frame with main cylinder. I took some time to square it up perfectly, so that the plate is perpendicular to the cylinder in all directions.
