Parts are finally starting to arrive in the mail! We have ordered several parts (some which have since decided against using) and expect to start assembly once they are all here.
The frame --which all pieces, parts, and covers will be assembled around arrived --earlier this week. It is essentially a cake tin that is 3 inches deep and 12 inches diameter. It is a lot larger than I imagined it would be. This is okay because I (speaking for myself only) was afraid that it would be too shallow.

But all is well :)
The tin encompasses 332.29 square inches of space. This is approximately tantamount to 23 cups.
Coming soon, there will be more information on the inner compartments which will divvy up these 23 cups. Ideas of how this intersections will be placed can be made when the rest of the mechanical pieces arrive in the mail.
The image in the post below (Fig.1) is an idea of what the compartment might look like, but it will change. For one, it will have to have a hole in the middle. Second, the slope closest to the center axis will likely change to accommodate a specific configuration of mechanical pieces, which have yet to be designed.
More on this next week.
