Shepard Test Stand

I am very excited to report the first prototype of the mechanical system is assembled and has just undergone a series of test fires. Here are some pics from the assembly process (please forgive the order, I will put together a formal set of documentation asap). More important, take a look below for a set of videos from the testing.
