Home-made parts for display casting on a Monotype Composition Caster

In this video I am test-fitting some parts I made for a friend. These parts are part of an accessory for casting larger display type on a composition caster. Because the accessory is not available new, it must be scavenged from discarded casters, and in the process certain critical parts may be lost.
Here I have made a couple of these parts, and I am verifying that they fit properly on my caster before shipping them off.

I would like to apologize for the poor quality of the still shot from the parts manual. I started editing the video using the resolution produced by my camera, and I only saw how poorly the page image looked when I was almost done editing. The editor I am using (VSDC Video Editor) does not allow you to change the basic resolution of a project, and I did not want to start the editing process all over from scratch.
