Chapter 399: First Puppet (1/2)

Sam pushed a button on the machine and the small rectangular plate besides the glass screen opened.

It also revealed a crystalline glass screen but this is Green in color.

He placed his hands on it and willed his spiritual consciousness to travel into the machine. Sam could feel him leaving his body and entering the machine.

His senses changed and he felt like whole different entity. His body just stood there motionless.

His spiritual conscious went into the Puppet core which is inside the Machine. He could feel all the parts of the machine and also the raw materials, energy cells, tools and fuel tanks which are not inherent part of the machine.

The best part is Sam could see the design he placed on the glass screen. He can see every detail in a close manner.

The energy from the energy cells is being drawn and the arms started moving, Sam picked up material from the pit. Then he placed it inside the opened fire pit and closed it. He started the methane gas and the fire was raging inside the pit.

The metal soon entered red hot condition. Sam didn't let the metal melt directly, if he wants to make a molten metal casting, he has to make some changes to the machine. They are minute though, but important.

The arm moved and removed the metal from the pit. It is now a lump of the bright red metal. The arm picked the lump and placed it inside one of the grooves of the pillar.

Of the two pillars near the fire pit, this is the main purpose, one side has grooves and the other side has some suspended beam.

The next second, a circular metallic cylinder which is extremely solid came out of the beam and hammered the metal into the groove.

This is not actually an efficient method, the groove box which is technically called the swage block will make the metal take the required shape, but it was mostly done on the floor to avoid instability. Of course, Sam was able to do it because of the stability of the machine and some extra inscriptions which prevent the metal from falling down.

After hammering into the groove, another arm moved and pushed the metal out, the metal didn't stick inside.

Now, Sam has a small metallic cylinder in his 'hands'. The workpiece changed arms and came to the second portion of the machine, within the compartment, there is a small empty compartment, and Sam placed the hot metallic piece inside. With some wind and water inscriptions combined, the metal was cooled.

He then brought back the solid metal and placed it inside one of the pillars, the place where the workpiece was held has a circular device with four jaws, between which the workpiece was held. This holding device was called the chuck.

After that there is a small sound coming from underneath the bed and the chuck started rotating. Another metallic arm picked up a took from the compartment, and then placed it on the workpiece which is rotating at an incredible speed.

The tool removed the metal off of the workpiece in the form of small metallic chips and a smooth surface appeared.

This operation is called turning. After normal turning, Sam started to turn the object in various lengths and various diameters.

Now, the cylinder has many grooves on it. After that, another arm appeared and this time it held a drill bit. The drill bit is not rotating, rather it is stationary and it was held along the rotating workpiece and a hole was made along the length of the cylinder.

After that, Sam performed many other operations, like Knurling, threading, and such before cutting the workpiece off of the holder, only this portion of the workpiece is useful.

After that, he placed the scraps and the chips of the metal in the raw material compartment.

The first component of the machine was ready and this happened in a few moments, with this machine not only was he able to do the whole process faster than normal, he did it with more efficiency. It is more efficient and accurate compared to him being normally trying to create them on machines.

He doesn't have to move the object from machine to machine and he doesn't have any errors, Sam felt ecstatic at the success of the production unit.

But then, a thought came to his mind. What should he name it?

Sam is extremely bad at naming but he always liked to name his products which had extremely bad effects.

Every time, he named a product there will be one thought in his mind. 'This time, I am going to think long and hard before deciding.' And almost every time, he screws up.

This time is also the same, he decided to think long and hard and all we have to do is wait for him to screw up.

Sam went on making one component after another, the arms of the machine moved as if they are his own hands, after one day of continuous manufacturing, Sam finally finished all his components and now there is another thing to be done to the components before he finished his assembly.

A metallic arm's end was removed by the other metallic arm and another tool was attached in that place.

It is a tool that looked like a pen.
