Recuperator drawn. That should make it all the major components.
- Recuperator
Should I send you all the stl files and see if you can assemble the jigsaw?

Phil, sent you a PM. That mechanism is looking nice. Did you have problems with the fits?

Phil I know you sent me a reply to my PM but it seems I can't read it. I am getting "You are not authorised to read private messages that are on hold."
Most probably it's my fault as this morning I was rearranging the received message folders. Hope it was not important.

Hi Vince, got your pm, the only fit issues are the cylinder brackets, they are 2mm to far away from the big clamp center's and I'm trying to lower them but this pla is a bugger file!

Other than that it's great! If you like you could adjust those brackets so they are around 1.5mm closer to the gun cradle? I would be so grateful, the bracket would be a bit thin walled but once bonded it wouldn't make any difference!
This thing is going to be fully functional!

Adrian, you are correct. Problem fixed.
Phil, just checked. There is a 2mm error. I will correct it and resend the stl files. Better than filing!
