Well, today I got out to the forge and I decided that before I did too much more on the arbor, it needed to be mounted in the frame. In order to mount it to the frame, I needed a 1/2" hole in one portion of the frame and a 1" hole in another part of the frame. Before I could do this, I needed to make a few drifts. I already had a 1/2" drift. I went ahead and made a 3/4" and 1" drift.
Here is a picture of the frame with the arbor in place.
The end of the arbor sticking out of the end of the frame will be squared up. The squared up part will be later connected the the clock face to actually show the time.
So why is this a minor milestone? For the first time there is a moving part on the clock.
