Making outline

Construct mechanically distinct translation/tilt axes and holders.
Install actuators and power connections.
Measure axis geometry, backlash, drift and travel independently before camera trials.

What remains unresolved

Full inventory, quantities, losses, capability compatibility and acceptance remain unreviewed.
