Here is a picture of the ETMX guide rod post-gluing. There is unfortunately a fair amount of excess. The "tab" is the result from the epoxy travelling along the finger of the fixture arm that held the guide rod.

We set out to glue the previously remove ETMX side magnet, and set up the fixture to do so. For ETMX we needed 3 mm of shimming on the thick side, and 6mm on the thin side.

However, while cleaning the magnet+dumbbell base of epoxy residue, I broke the dumbbell off of the magnet 

We then fetched the spare side magnet that Steve had been holding onto. While cleaning it, it was dropped and dissapeared from this plane of existence 

So, instead of gluing a side magnet today, we are gluing the existing magnet and dumbbell back together:

Sadly, this used up the last of our EP30.

Though Koji had the foresight to order more(), it will not arrive until Monday/Tuesday, so no side magnet gluing until then.
