Chapter 141: CH 140

While enjoying the nostalgic feeling, I stretched the sheet metal into an elongated plate. The length and thickness are measured with my cheat. Its hardness is of a custom model one. Since the steel is simply stretched, the first piece is made quickly. About seven different lengths are needed for each leaf spring so I prepared to stretch them in the same way. Only the longest one has both ends rounded, I shaped it like a small cylinder.
When making a knife, I would probably form its shape as it is. But today, in a state before it was turned into a knife, I did some quenching on it. Speaking of which, even in the previous world, the leaf springs of trucks can be carve out and make them into knives. On the contrary, I am now making leaf springs from the materials used on knives. Thinking of it, it’s kind of interesting.
Since stretching a sheet metal is just a small work, I was able to finish the work in a blink of an eye. However, it will take some time to make a prototype of the front wheel part so this is it for today. The detailed parts and assembly will be done tomorrow.
The next morning,
I decided to use the mini cart prototype model when fetching water. I covered the water jug with a lid and secured it to the mini cart with a rope. This is also a simple reproduction of how carts are used when transporting goods. We experimented on it yesterday so I’m sure there’s nothing wrong with it. Kururu was waiting just outside the house this morning as well. I tied a rope to Kururu for him to pull the mini cart around.
“This is for today. I’ll be counting on you.”
“Kururu”
Kururu pulls the mini cart with a rattle and starts walking with me. It’s an empty water jug but it’s heavier compared to an empty barrel. It’s quite stable and it doesn’t become wobbly except for the occasional rattling. Kururu doesn’t seem to have any difficulty in pulling it so I can say that there is no problem for the time being. The real part begins when I filled the water jug with water. When we arrived at the lake, I filled the water jugs. When I put it on the mini cart, it sinks a lot. It’s quite heavy….

I put the lid on the water jug and tied a rope around the neck to secure it to the cart. That should do it.
In conclusion, the mini cart itself was a success. Since it is covered and fixed with a rope, water does not leak and it is a given that it will not fall but there is still a little shaking. If this is the case, the same effect can be expected even if it is attached to the cart.
Well, the only failure was that Kururu seemed to look a little bored. Apparently, when fetching water in the morning, it wants to carry it by itself, not with a cart. With a wry smile, I promised Kururu to let him carry it from tomorrow.
After finishing all my morning routines, I proceed with my work. My work for today is to make parts. Today as well, Rike and the others are dividing up the work on making short swords and longswords.
The parts I will make today are the ones that will hold the springs together, the ones that will secure the springs to the cart, the wheels, axles and thin plates that will reinforce the cart in places. Using the mini cart as a reference, I used my cheat to make the size of the parts to be attached to the actual cart.
If I didn’t have this cheat, I would have had to measure the dimensions and make it from there… I think it would have been something like that normally, but well, that’s the cheat for me. The parts that fix the spring to the cart may have a rather complicated shape, but I can create the correct shape with the correct dimensions in one shot.
I might be able to make an early car if I knew how it worked. Well, I don’t have intention of making such a thing at the moment though. I want to make only good things that fit this world as much as possible.
Next to the assembly line work, with rattling noises, I create a one-off part. The reverse section looks a bit weird. When I completed the set of parts, I did a “heave-ho” and then I headed for the cart.
