Cheers Lads Bin a bit distracted from this over the last couple of weeks:- short holiday domestic duties etc. But I cobbled it together:- lot of the nuts and bolts left off so things are not sealed and I didn't fit the flywheel, but I still tested it on air and it ran Next job strip it down fit give it a paint job and a base and a few other button and bells. Cheers Stew |

Very nice Stewart :thumbup: I'm guessing that that's reving rather faster than the full scale one would :scratch: |

In the mean time her's a vid of the real thing running. Cheers Stew |
