The axle rods for the hinges are precision guide rods, recycled from CD and DVD drives, and the holes in the hinges had to be diamond lapped after anodizing. Not agricultural machinery standard.
I'm just amazed that given the geometry of the whole assembly that third hinge axle rod went in without a fight.
