but, I've hit a snag. I'm a little disheartened.

The mechanism I've got I've not only frelled up the back from attaching something to the wrong side, but I don't think the shaft length is going to work. Actually as I write this I’ve come up with the solution, but I just have to hear back from the company I got the original movement from.

So hopefully all is not lost. Moral of this story, never underestimate how thick card covered in fabric, and not just think it will be fine. Ah, well I do love a challenge.
