It may have been a lot cheaper to buy a lump of 6 inch brass bar , but not nearly as much fun. I am now looking to cast cylinder covers and valve chest covers. |

Me, too. The one thing that is stopping me, is that I already have so many projects. Getting into yet another would mean they all suffer even more time deficit. Nice finished part. I have one quibble, though. You spent all that time on the casting, and yet machined it all. It looks too good - no evidence at all of the work that went into making the casting. I'd say you should leave the outside diameter in an as-cast state. I know I'd want to, so I could point to it and say, "I made that from scratch". |
