Have stalled slightly, cars and life getting in the way a bit.

I have glued the cells together with Gorilla glue so they are 'as one' I have found some thin copper, 7 thou I think. They are sat waiting for the soldering iron...

I am also creating a panoramic head for 360/180ยบ spherical panoramas. I have got my lathe up and running at last.

This is an 'artists' impression of the pano head, turned from solid aluminium.







I have made the curved bit and am working on the revolving hub at the moment.

Need to incorporate some sort of click locations to the vertical (pan) axis. Have made the main hub parts, tomorrow I make the steel shaft for it to rotate on.
