About this video

Sometimes, you spend more time making a tool than you do making the thing the tool is needed to make. That's where Adam has ended up on his detour in machining the rotary table and fixture "cheese" plate needed to fabricate the neck joints for his T-Rex stop-motion armature. But in these kinds of builds, the process is very much the point!
