Cross table failed to move!

Morning went OK, as photos show, all coating, but
two different kinds simultaneously, adding to the
time it takes to complete.

I can still live with it, though.





I was shattered early in the afternoon. I just thought that
before embarking on the chinese spoons I might get a glimpse
into the roow window framing.

Since the grooving length is something like 30cm, I
loosened the table stopper and rotated the table davance
handle on and on, and it all happened suddenly!



Above schematic is showing you what happened.
The long feeder bolt slipped out of its female counterpart!
Naturally, I tried to push it back in, but no...

That was the start of my daymare. I had to phone up the
manufacturer for frequent advice. In the end I ended up
unscrewing parts of the assembly to fix it!



Above photo is showing you the aftermath. Complete
recalibration of my vice on the table. Including this and
phoning and dis-assembling work all of my afternoon today

simply dissipated! recalibration is abosolutely
neccessary for my window grooving and it is just a matter of
trial and error. It takes time!

Actually, there is noe more thing I will have to do.
Remove the vice again so that I can fiddle with the
jig for the table motion. At the moment table movement is

a little too stif. In order to reduce it I will need to
fiddle with 4 screws and nuts. The vice is in the way!



Above photo is showing you roofing by shingles. It is difficult
to see, but there are metal pieces aling the side of the slant.
Nothing at the bottom of it. So, this is a typical example

of roofing done by professionals.



I have done some research into roofing issues and above schematic
seems to be the best solution.



However, in reality, I do not seem to have seen those metal
pieces available at any of the DIY shops I have been to.

They do store simpler metal jigs as shown as A here. What do I
do with them? B is a tentative solution. I am sure that
this will do just as nicely, but, but, but...

In practice it may not matter, as my intention is to use
polyester resin rather extensively all around the places
where rain might sneak into.

My current guestimate of the costs is something like
JPY 500,000. This nicely compares with similar cases
seen on the web.
