Struggling with integration detail on Backhoe. Lack of scale prototype and step-by-step procedure means we are figuring things out on the fly for details of fit - thereby extending build time by a day. Main pivot was assembled. Requires careful step-by-step in order to do it on the first try.

Swarming on Backhoe and Ironworker build today. Ironworker: pivot plates, blade mount, cylinder mount, cut shaft, and done. Backhoe: bucket attach, boom and stick drilling, cutting of rest of materials, building pivot, cutting shaft, attaching cylinders, adding QA mount, making pins. On Bulldozer Geardown - need to drill out keyways. Need mills. Sweiger: belt. refining Design Sprint#Design_Process
