Impressive!

I’d love to know how you carved the crankcase where the ‘horizontal’ and ‘vertical’ cylindrical surfaces meet (does that make sense?), and also the internal corners where the web meets the crank extension housing.

Great care and dexterity, some fairly simple milling operations and a bunch of elbow grease,blood, sweat and the odd tear. lol.

[Kiwi BlokeParticipant @kiwibloke62605]

Thanks. As I feared, no magic machining solution then, but the application of greater-than-average skill! And patience…

[dean clarke 2Participant @deanclarke2]

Unfortunately yeah, the last part is the filing and fetteling of the cylinder to case join.

Slight sidetrack to complete the drum type back plate,

[dean clarke 2Participant @deanclarke2]

Now I’ll start the crankshaft, lol

Can’t wait to see it, your posts here are great punctuations in the year..

..is there an induction stub to attach to the drum housing?

Looks Good ! The crank case finish looks like a type of blasting ? What medium ? Noel.
