John DB, I do realise how much work Rob has put into it, he has sweated blood for me on this one. How he has taken my grotty little sketch to fruition has amazed me at every step, and now seeing the finished article brings a lump to my throat, a true artisan at everything he does. A massive undertaking on his part just so that I can have a totally unique engine, I just hope I can make the rest of it to come up to the standard required. I don't think people realise just how large it is, it stands over 9" high. I actually called it off in ali, but being the person he is, Rob insisted it was to be of bronze. The quality he has made it to means that very little machining will be required, but unfortunately it will be having a coat of paint, as that is what the finished article calls for. Such a shame to cover up all that artistry. But needs must. John |
