Documentation: Some, this file, a bit in the wiki, and of course look at the files especially the *.FCStd

	Standard Disclaimer:
		If you have more than a casual interest in this project you should contact me and
		see if the repository is actually in good shape.  I may well have improved software

------- stl i have used so far ------ guide_v1.stl

print at 30% to get ideas on dim and printing
orientation 
printed in operating position with support
took something over an hour
  
  
  result:
	stem just fit with just a bit of filing
	cool block did not fit even with filing ( should file )
	fitted in 1/4 inch bolts with tap, did not try to fit nuts
		check nut dim against knob tutorial
		
	did fit reduced block of epay and saw works reasonably well with this
	seems sturdy enough id not too much so.
	
	
Next:
	check on nut size
	have some un constrained sketch fix
	resize the cool block and test print first
