Hang around. the fun has just begun....the more the merrier. Nothing to report tonight, other than one road weary Cedge.  We spent the day wandering the back roads of the mountains of gerogia and North Carolina today. A tad over 300 miles of twists and turns on narrow winding roads. Lots of beautiful scenery but my A$$ hurts too much to sleep right now.....LOL

Not a lot of photos tonight, since it's all been drilling and tapping tiny holes. Not much entertainment value, but it sure makes assembly much easier. Here is the first test fitting of the cylinders, glands and head. I'll be fitting the pistons and rod next so I can begin measuring the elevation needed to mount the assembly. Still need to make the glands for the 3rd cylinder but needed a break from making tiny holes.

The file is there to compensate for the 1/8 inch difference in the diameter of  the two cylinders.
