Jigs. I love 'em and I don't like making them. But often they're the only way to go. I made the track roller shafts the other day.



Next time I'll make the stop on the left side of the jig the same height as the flats on the shaft. That way they'll be easier to square up when I drill the holes.



And a batch of more or less identical shafts.





And I got started on the machinery deck. Kind of goofed up on it though. I got ahead of myself and milled the recess for the servo on the wrong side. But since everything is symmetrical I can flip it over and countersink the holes on the other side. Those are the bolt holes for the side frames for the machinery.
