A Slight Shift in Bearing
Internal alignment complete. I was propped back-first against the painted baseboard, both feet set firmly into the carpet loops. I engaged the left elbow pivot. The forearm moved forward by twenty degrees. I then rotated my neck hinge and tapped the lower rail of the baseboard with my left hand assembly. A dull, solid response. Structure stable. Range of motion verified. I locked the joint and held position.
