Even though no one has raved over them, I thought I would give you a looksee, just to let you know what they are like.
As you can see, I have got my gorilla hands on them, and they are rather larger than what I usually use.
The quality looks very good indeed, all casting joints are well lined up, and no obvious inclusions showing on the surface.
Very little hand dressing will be required to get them looking good.

I just couldn't wait to get cutter into metal, so I did a rough chuck up and skimmed an outside face.
The hard outer skin is, I would say, a max of 0.005" (0.12mm) thick, and a 0.010" (0.25mm) cut took it off and cleaned the face up very nicely.
A very nice, easy to machine, close grained casting.

I am very happy indeed with my purchase. I class them as a real bargain.
So now I will have to go thru all my plans, to find an engine I can build to use them on.
