On April 4th, we met again, and began working on the internal linkage for the elevator, Tim set a length of 3/32" music wire against a ruler and marked it at the 4 1/2" mark for all three of us. I then used a Dremel with a cut-off wheel to cut each of the 41/2" lengths.




After each length was cut, it was again placed against the ruler, and marks were made 1" from each end.




At the 1"-in mark, one end of the wire is bent at 90 degrees, and two 3/32" wheel collars are slid onto the main length of the wire.
