Glue two 15 mm rods into the divots razor block mounts.
Insert the razors into the notch. The razors can be clamped with m3 bolts but they actually fit snugly so there is not need.
With a spring between them thread the the two 90 mm rods through the holes of each razor block mount such that the razors are facing one another. Set razor block mount assembly aside.

Thread a 50 mm M5 bolt through a nut and inset it through the middle hexagonal hole. Add another nut on the other side and tighten deez nuts until they are holding the bolt pretty tight.
