while working on the latest part for the ratchet, I got to thinking (I know I'm not suppose to but) so I went back and looked at the mud covered photo of the same shaper that I have and I believe I'm making this part wrong.
here's the part that I have just about finished (only like a couple small parts for the pawl) in its place on the shaper along with all the other parts that I have that fit there.

I'm thinking that there is suppose to be a skirt that covers the part that is over the ratchet gear.
heres the photo that I'm trying to decypher to make this part.
