Aluminium Quorn

awemawson:
Dennis Chaddock was a long time member of SM&EE and I do seem to remember when I was chairman in 1998 his model of the BRM engine that triggered the creation of the Quorn was in our model collection.

It's been displayed over the years at several exhibitions - have a picture :

Over the years I have collected Model Engineer magazines back to the fifties, with some definite gaps, but I particularly remember Mr. Chaddock, in print at least, as the promoter and judge of the hot air engine competitions and a theorist for the type. Hot air and flash steam engines are a main interest for me.  :coffee:

I'm a bit slow on the uptake! Why cast them in Al? Za12 would be better, supposed to have similar characteristics to cast iron!

Cheers, Matthew
