The transmision is running

Spent a bit of time finishing up the cutaway transmission.
Remounted the transmission so the cutaway was up, mounted a gearmotor to the output end of the transmission so I can simulate a shift with clutch in.
The hardest part was getting the shifter to work, but after some hacking, I have it operating like new.
The next step will be to carefully document the operation of the transmission as it goes through the gears in both directions. Since this is a transmission, a video will be a better way to explore how it works. Sat workshop Sep 14 (tomorrow) will be when we get into it again.Can clearly see everything going on, so it should be very informative.
