And now the leaders of the records and jacks.
The guides are made with a sandwich, from bottom to top, parchment, wood and leather. The wood is very thin, so that the parchment is used to reinforce it since then when it penetrates the end grain is too weak and could miss. The skin on the other hand need to get a scroll of silent jacks. The ratchet on its way not to touch wood or parchment, which only serve to rigidly support the skin, but only the latter.
Making Guide is conceptually simple, then the truth I'm having some difficulty running.
In fact, you mark the sides of the mortises through which flows the ratchet, then with a few strokes of chiseling hole, and then you delete the plug resulting in wood. After driving it down with a knife and widen the holes are, "but only on the bottom without touching the skin, so that the ratchet can not be touched but only wood and parchment skin. the difficulty lies in making cuts is not clean.
Easier records. Marked on them too long sides of the mortises through which the jacks scroll it, practiced it in these signs of the angled cuts, because the records are opened downwards so that the ratchet is held only by a small wooden edge . Once finished with chisels and files, and clean, close the remaining open sides with a strip of wood.
guides with the first holes. In front of them the two bars from which the records will be obtained. These are already marked.
angled cuts. I cut two records together so that the alignment is perfect. Then I had an accident with the second of them and the signs before the second I had to redo the cuts already made on the first register.
