There is little progress in the fabrication of my mechanical amplifier for windmill.
I made several sorties to the workshop. Either it was lunch time or people had left for field work. Or they donot pickup phone. Finally I managed to reach them today.
Santosh does the lathe works
Dilip does the welding works.
Today i resolved to spend 1 hour. Santosh was pleased at my perseverance. So he also decided to provide whatever I wanted. Earlier he was waiting for some consignment to come thinking he will give those rods. But I told whatever in the shop will do. So he re-bore the sliding pieces to suit the existing rods in lathe machine.
In the welding shop, they do spot welding (tagging) before finally welding. Today I was pleased to see the final shape emerging. Long way to go. But so far so good.
Today's work for productive. I will allow two days now for Dilip to create a frame between the sliders.
Rest in pictures.

| The temperory welding is being removed. The bottom frame will be drilled with holes. |
 |
| This is how they mark the holes. 14" inches apart. This is to suit the base of my wind mill bore well setup. |
 |
| Drilling the hole on heavy metal. |
 |
| Welding the bottom frame properly. Since I finalised the design, they are welding every joint. |
 |
| The weld looks kachcha. Will be polished later. |
 |
| Today's work. The parts getting machined and ready. |
 |
| Lathe Machine |
 |
| Back to welding shop. Note where the part goes. Rod is for alingnment. Some more work is there. |
 |
| Just adding this picture to show what is getting ready. |
 |
| Was surprised to see they are using level indicator to align the rod vertically before welding it to frame. |
