Head gaskets almost finished:


Material is 0.1mm(0.00393") copper sheet, that was annealed first. Nothing fancy, I just carved the combustion chamber -shaped holes with knife.

You are doing a fine job there sorveltaja. Glad to see you back at it after the renovations. I missed my daily dose of catching up on your build.
