I know I'd want to, so I could point to it and say, "I made that from scratch". --- End quote --- Yeah, that real "scratch" init :clap: :clap: :clap: |

I just had to say well done guys. This is an extremely rewarding facet to our hobby and I'd encorage anyone with an ounce of common sense to have a go. Pics attached of the cylinders for the latest build 25mm bore 40mm stroke from start to finish. Cheers and good luck. Artie |

Hi Artie Nothing to be sorry about , the more posts the better ,this casting is certainly interesting stuff. I have been making casting flasks all week (i hate working with wood). I am hoping to cast a brass name plate for the house ,if i can keep the wife happy all will be well. Regards John |
