Field notes
The page describes a specimen record built around components such as legs, locks, center column, and head, with measurements intended to make models comparable. Its stated rules distinguish four use-oriented stability levels and say an unmet criterion lowers a model’s level. The site also reports 128 archived groups and a double-check process, though those operational claims are not independently verifiable from the supplied extract.
