After doing the journal, i have start doing the mechanical toy and i had used so tools to have it done.
Firstly, i have the to drilling a tight-fitting hold using the drilling machine on the round cam that i am using. Next, i have to measure the length of the stick and where to hammer the cam in. Here is the picture of the cam hammered into the stick.
Next, i have to cut out the follow shaft, i have chosen acrylic and i used the scroll saw to cut it. after that, i will use the half-round file to file the parts that is not cut nicely. and after that, i nid to polish it so that it will be smooth.
Next i have to prepare the follow, handle and the stopped. for the all of them, i have to drill at least 1 hold in it.
Here are some pictures of setting up the mechnical toy on how it will roughly look like. [ but it is not nailed ]
