A very cold night, for drilling pivot holes.
Patches was gracious enough to to lend a leg so we could know where to drill.

A cold night for working in the center leg

Here is a tribute picture our biggest helper

The longest part of the center leg matched our motor mount very well!

so far so good. . .


Dang! Spoke too soon. Just as we found the exact angle for the ankle mount point the old faithful chop-saw decided to die.

My R2 legs are ready for some homework.

I can see it coming together!

Someday I'll have my pool table back!

March 2nd



Not much progress today.
