First day of construction

Today I got into the groove of things. I spent the most time constructing the aluminum side supports, the majority of the structure. I also assembled the gearbox, the wheel on to the hub, and also drilled the holes into the shoe I'm attaching the rig to. I've modified some dimensions to better suit the shoe, and it's strange shape.

Work hit a standstill today however. The bolts that I thought I had available are no where to be found. So I need to buy some more at the hardware store or order more online. I need to seriously start considering my electrical components I need to purchase too.
